I am not poly, however, my parents were. So I am able to help with anyone who doesn’t fully understand the dynamic :)

I’m glad you’ve put yourself out there to help. I’ve not yet met someone who has been the child in a poly household. My kids are young, elementary age. As of right now, they realize I have two friends that I regularly go places with. That’s all it is to them. That being said, I realize it’s possible at some point that they would realize what’s up. I don’t want to lie or anything like that, but I do wonder what the best way to approach the situation is.

So…. In your opinion, What’s the best way to approach explaining poly to the kids and is there anything you think your family did amazing well or anything you wish they’d done differently?

I currently have no live-in partners. I have before, but in my children’s eyes it was my husband and my roomie.
