Moms Talk: How do You Talk About Infidelity?

If your partner or someone you know strays in a relationship, how do you talk about it with your children?

With recent news that actor and ex-California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger fathered a child with a member of his household staff while married to Maria Shriver – which has split up the family – and other high-profile marriages rocked by infidelity, we sometimes have to have uncomfortable discussions with our children.

How do you talk to your kids about cheating in a relationship? Is it something you have experienced yourself? If so, how did you handle it?
