Here is Ethan’s letter:
Hi Ethan! Thank you for sharing your story. We’ve prepared some tips that can help you navigate through this situation.
Rebuild communication with your wife.
Your wife feels betrayed and unprotected, so rebuilding trust is essential. Apologize for putting her in this position and acknowledge her fears without defensiveness. Reassure her that your priority is her and your son, and express your commitment to finding a solution that respects her feelings.
Ask for an honest, calm discussion to address her concerns and show her that you value her and your family above all.
