I am at the moment going thru a divorce and am waiting for my nisi. We are still living in the same house with our three children, at present it resembles a war zone. I think that the best time to tell the children (6,10,15) would be in the school hols to give them chance to get used to the idea before going back and rather than upset them during term time. I don't yet have any answers as to where we are going to live, but I am having custody of the children and am very prepared to let my ex have lots of access inc overnight stops. He will not tell them with me, so we aren't going to have the both parents sit down and tell the children how much they both love them. This is down to me and I don't know how to handle it! Help?!
