But the main problem is that they came over to my house last night and my kids saw them. Before we could discuss it, they told my children that they were engaged. I was upset because they knew that I wasn’t thrilled about the whole thing. At the very least, in MY house they should have asked me before they announced that they were engaged. Now am I supposed to explain to my kids how they met?/
Hmmm… They must have their own etiquette handbook.
But as far as your children go, I don’t think they’ll ask anything. Just be as nonchalant around them as you can manage and they won’t think into it too much. On the other hand, if they perceive you as anxious or uncomfortable about the engagement, they might start wondering about it and then start questioning you.
