We are all programmed to nurture and protect our kids, so this step may feel like it goes against our parental instincts. And yet being a parent also means being honest and responsible. What's more, you are your children's most important role model. In sharing this news, you have an opportunity to demonstrate both vulnerability and resilience. It's important to communicate a balance of "this is a sad time" and "we are going to get through this."
