Re: Should I tell the children

I have no personal experience of this, although my sister had a similar situation, so that, plus my gut feeling is that you should let them see her. You've been given some wise advice, I think- I totally agree about trying to separate your feelings as a mum from those as a wife.
The girlfriend is obviously around for the long term, and of course he will always be their father, so I think you will have to bite your lip and go along with it. Whatever you do don't badmouth them to the children- they (the children)will thank you for that in the long run.
I know this is probably one of the hardest things you will ever have to do, as well as coping with the hurt, it must be almost unbearable. But, dig deep and do your utmost- trust that your children will see things how they really are when they are older, and form their own opinions.
Be strong. I send you a big hug, and lots of courage x
