Hello everyone-
Well, my six year old rushed into my classroom and told me that her stepmother is pregnant. I have been expecting it as the OWnew-wife has been pushing it long before their wedding last June, but it still felt weird to hear it.
I can honestly say I don't feel sad, or mad, or even wish it was me. We have been divorced almost three years so I am long past that. What I am feeling is more worried on how it will effect my kids.
Oh well, I just thought I'd see how others had handled this.
Take care and God bless!

Good detachment, and focus on your children.
There's nothing we can do in the X's household, so we can only give our children the emotional tools to handle many different situations.

You are so right newly, we can't help what happens beyond our walls. So far I am seeing mixed reactions from my kids. I just hope this all works out for them.
The thing that really is bothering me is that things have been a bit stressful between the XH and OW as of late. I guess the honeymoon is over, and just in time for a baby. Some people just never learn.
Thanks for the support.
Take care and God bless!
