Question by Megan Smith:

How should one tell older children their unborn child has been diagnosed with a birth defect?





I'm working on a story in which the main character's unborn son has been diagnosed with spina bifida. She has two older daughters one is 6 and the other is 3. She quickly spirals into a state of clinical depression. Obviously, her children would notice this, so my question becomes how should the father go about explaining something like this to them?




Best answer:

Answer by lady green
