i have a 9 yr old and i told him the truth when his step dad got arrested. i knew it would be in the local newspaper and on local radio and i did not want him finding out from the kids at school because we live in a very rural town and word spreads fast. your children need the truth from you. they need to know that you trust them with the truth. they need to know by you trusting them with the truth that they can trust you with anything they may need to say to you. my son and i are best friends besides mother and son and i know that he will come to me with anything because he knows he can trust me. honesty with discrestion is the best policy. they have dare programs in school but it all starts at home. set the example for your children letting them know that what happened is against the law- it is morally and ethically wrong and there are consequences to not obeying the law. they also need to know that they need to respect the law. you need to let then know that their dad is ill-he has a problem and at this point in his life he can not make sound decisions about anything. reassure them that it is not yours or their fault that he is this way and they need to love him more than ever now and pray for him. i will pray for you and your family. peace be with you all.
