Description

A question that comes up a lot in our women’s groups dealing with sexual addiction is, “Should I be talking to my kids about this?” And experts are divided on this question.



Some sexual addiction counselors say you don’t need to involve the kids or disclose anything about infidelity. Others have the opinion that because it does impact the kids, they’re entitled to know at least some of what’s going on.


Which just goes to show - every situation is incredibly nuanced.


We're giving you some points to consider about sharing with your kids, but since every situation is different, there’s no universal checklist (we know - it sucks). And because we can’t speak to every possible situation in one conversation, we’re talking in broad, general terms. We highly recommend working with a therapist or coach to navigate your particular situation.


You’ll Learn:



  • Ways to share, with clarity, in a way that minimizes harm to your kids

  • Conversation tips whether you’re staying married or pursuing divorce

  • How to go about supporting your kids while letting them navigate their own unique emotional journey

  • Why waiting for the situation to feel more positive delays healing
