You should let them know that the mommy often has no husband because the men leave them.
@SW-User that is not right...that is total lie about real life. Kids are now learning reproductive systems/sex in grade 5/6 by the time they are in high school they know how a child is concieve.
@SW-User and what do you tell them if the child has two dads? The moomy left?

I grew with a fear that my mom would leave as someone jealous of her use to feed this fucking crap to me since i was 8 yr old and i would have nightmares until i was 19.

@aaaabbbb Yes, you should inform them of everyone who fucked and everyone who left. Diagrams can help.
