hi
I am a independent woman working as a teacher. I fully agree with ur words but can u help me out for solving a major problem that is how should i tell my 9 yrs. old son about my divorce and till now i am staying with my parents and he thinks that my dad is his Father and as far as my mom is concerned he calls her naani. and i am staying with my parents when my son was 1 1/2 yrs. old. and now my younger sister is getting married and everyone will be there at our house, so i want that i should tell him the fact instead it comes out of anybody's else mouth

i dont know the reasons for divorce. but then also u can start withur child saying that whom he calls father is her nana. when he asks that where is dad then u can say that see we got seperated and when asked why u can explain him the reasons. i suppose a nine year old child will be matur a biot to understand things
