Moms, this is going to be a short post. I am absolutely heartsick over one of my coaching calls today. I have said this before and I must say it again! Put your children first!!!
Did you know that stepfathers and boyfriends place your children, especially daughters at an unbelievably higher risk for sexual and physical abuse? You may and probably are feeling lonely and afraid. I’m sorry about that and I get that. That said, I will never advocate throwing children under the bus in order to be comforted!
This is a frightening fact. Vulnerable women who have been hurt by divorce and abandonment issues tend to find men who create the same scenarios as those that they chose in their previous relationships.
You must step up to the plate. You must put your own needs aside. These are your children. It is your job and your responsibility to put them first. They did not choose their fathers or your divorce. They depend on you. Suck it up and put them first. You won’t be sorry. I promise!!!
