Ask Dr. Tseday: December 6, 2008
A.G. from Brea, CA asks: My ex-wife is pregnant from another man. We have three children together. As in the past, she continues to lean on me for support and guidance. I was ok with that in the past, but not now. I’m not exactly excited about her pregnancy. I guess you can say I’m angry with her and about the whole situation. My question to you is, do I have to continue being supportive?
Dr. Tseday responds: Yes, you do. I understand the feelings you have and the implication it could bring to the entire family. But for the sake of your children, you must continue to support her, the mother of your children. Since their well-being depends on the well-being of their mother, you need to do everything you can to make sure their mother is alright.
