Your Question:
how am i supposed to tell my kids that we're losing our home?
Answer:
Telling your kids that you're losing your home can be a difficult conversation to have. As a pastor, I've seen many families go through tough times, and it's essential to approach the situation with care and empathy. When my wife, Susan, and I had to have this conversation with our children, Joshua and Rebecca, we wanted to make sure they felt loved and supported. We decided to have an open and honest conversation with them, explaining the situation in a way that they could understand. We told them that we would always be there for them, no matter what, and that our home would always be a place where they could come and feel safe. We also reminded them that they are adults now and that it's time for them to start building their own lives, just like we did when we were their age. We handed them a key to our home, symbolizing that our house is always their home, and that they can come and go as they please. It's essential to remember that your children may not be ready to hear the news right away, so be patient and give them time to process their emotions. As you have this conversation, try to focus on the positive aspects of their independence and the opportunities that lie ahead for them. Remember, as a parent, your role is not to fix everything for them, but to guide and support them as they navigate the challenges of adulthood.
