Question: 

I am about to have a difficult conversation with my husband of 30 years and tell him he needs to move out and get help for his sexual addiction. What do I tell the children who are in the house ages 15, 19, and 24? I believe they are all aware of the problem, although I don't know to what extent. I have not brought it up with them. Or do I just let him explain what is going on?
