Me and my boyfriend have come to the conclusion together that are relationship is not a positive and is in fact causing a negative environment for our children. How do I explain to my young children that a man they treat as a second father is not going to be around as often? we've decided weekend visitations with vacations spent entirely at his residence.
I'm nervous that this breakup will negatively effect my children and want to handle it in the best way possible.

It's good that you and your husband are attempting to restore your relationship. But I think you need to realize that it's not just a "negative" environment or situation. (You having a boyfriend besides your husband) It is actually sin that needs to be repented of. I hope you realize this.

Sounds to me like the many teen and young adult stories that get posted since I joined.
I may be wrong, but I think we have a member that likes to drum up new stories along with their fictional characters.

"Hello fellow Christian's! I'm Berengaria 🤥and I have a tonne of middle names so I just go by Berengaria. I have a husband who I am currently repairing my relationship with. I have somehow managed to acquire 13 children by the young age of 18!! I love all of my children! I now live full time in Boston to be closer to my husband and to have my children closer to their dad!"

Lol. He's Obnoxious but it's pretty funny. And I guess he kinda makes a point.

True!
His wife is in prison too. 😆
Maybe Berry Blue Barrengaria Bulgaria Stitzelsnuzen Batman's Cape would be his girlfriend. They are both very obnoxious. Lol

No, he just trolls his city council and mayors to make a point about the "vaccines" and other current events. He uses humor (debatable) though to bring attention to issues.
Yeah, cuz his references to neck injury and heart health seemed to show he has a clue lol.

Oh my he's a little crazy. But it's nice some people are standing against stuff.
There's places that were bribing kids to be injected without parental consent. They lured them with pizza and ice cream like some kidnapper to their creeper van.

Sorry to get so serious. The doctor did this to my Mom with his con man deception and it worries me that she will die from it.
