tribune may 24 1989 c9 photos of stouffvilles weekly calendar of events exhubby in album a friend in meade dr ed meade q my children are at an age where they enjoy looking at fami ly photo albums i was married for several years before meeting my present spouse and my childrens father while the first union dissolved my first husband and i remain distant friends i never felt it necessary to throw out any old photographs how do i explain these pictures to my children is there really a need to explain these pictures and your former marriage to your children this is the type of skeleton you pro bably dont want in your closet im reminded of a movie i recently saw called see you in the morning in which a couple both from previous marriages deal with the feelings of guilt and with letting go of previous rela tionships especially as the old alliances interact with the new relationships and children are there residual feelings of guilt still hanging on with your first relationship are these photographs an issue with your present husband are you by any chance living in the same house you and your first spouse shared is there one child in particular you would prefer not to know about your past you can see that your question raises as many questions as it suggests answers you could place these photographs in a special album apart from your present family which would enhance the dignity of your present marriage photographs intermingled could be confusing to your children as they act as a symbol of impor tance keeping the photographs is a ritualistic statement of preserving importance hence these photographs either side by side or in the same album may be communicating the message that the first spouse has equal im portance and dignity as the childrens father t dr meade welcomes
