I guess you can only try to reassure him that although you and your wife aren’t together you will both always love him.

We have a 6 year old son. </P> <P>Tonight he told me he has tried everything to get us back together and doesn’t know why we live apart. He cried his eyes out. It ripped my heart out.</P> <P>i am currently in the shower crying my eyes out. What am I supposed to say to him? How could someone do this to him? How could someone break up a family? </P> <P>im a broken man. </P> Sun, 15 Sep 2019 10:31:10 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/relationship-and-family-issues/son-struggling-with-separation/m-p/457597#M35245 38yearold 2019-09-15T10:31:10Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/relationship-and-family-issues/son-struggling-with-separation/m-p/457598#M35246 It must be hard seeing your son in pain over your separation, a situation that adults struggle to comprehend let alone someone his age.
