Hi all, I'm just wondering, for those of you with kids, what do you tell your kids about BK, job loss, financial hardship, the collection calls, the days when you're crying for no reason and all the other things that come up at times like this?
I'm just wondering. As some of you might have read elsewhere on this board, my 7-year-old speech-language impaired daughter has taken to sleeping with her teddy, her blankie, and, more recently, a sock filled with quarters! The quarters thing made me cry. Especially b/c my dh and I had not been talking about any of this in front of her, but obviously she KNOWS something's up. She might be language-impaired, but I guess she's not stupid.
It's hard to know how to make her feel secure when we feel so insecure.
