Separation and the child

[Moooovellous]

Hello there! My husband and I are separating and we have a 3.5 (almost 4) year old little boy. He has always been very keen on having both of his parents with him as much as he can and he gets very upset when one of us is missing even for a short time. I am worried as he has always been so and now that my husband has decided to separate I am dreading my son's reaction. Has anybody been throw that? I feel so sorry for my little boy and of course it won't be easy for anybody..... Explaining this to a little child is difficult and upsetting.....

Yes I have, and still going through this. If you need to talk PM me x

I am soory to hear this, it's not an easy thing..... How old are your children and how sensitive are they to it? We still haven't told him anything but he must sense something as he is making us hold hands and cuddle each other. He probably heards things about it. It's hard for everybody but I feel the pain twice as I feel my little boy's one and worry a lot about telling him. I also finding hard to face the fact that I might not have him every day with me, I have never been seperated from him more than a couple of hours as I am at home and he only goes to nursery in the afternoons. I find it wrong not to see your child every day. We are not there yet, but I am anticipating and I hate the thought of it...
