Agreed. My children’s father is absolutely one of the best men I’ve ever known.
Years ago someone I hadn’t seen for awhile came to my office & kept asking how he was etc … finally had to say I wasn’t sure about one of the things. He replied: but you’re married to him.
I laughed & explained we divorced years before that.
Never forgot how he stopped talking & his face went blank. Then he said: I’m sorry, I didn’t know. Never heard either of you speak bad about the other so I had no idea you divorced.
I said something along the line of: He’s the father of my children. It’s great to hear he’s never spoken bad of me. I see no reason to speak bad of him.
Hopefully this comes out as educational & not preaching or arrogant. Cause trust me: my ex and I had our personal issues but we kept it out of our workplaces (almost completely aside from immediate supervision for obvious reasons) & always away from our children.
Our grown children are incredible & turned out way better than any of us could have hoped.
