It is very understandable that you feel as you do. Avoidance is a good tactic in such a situation. You don't need to do this to yourself.
You also could be honest with them in some way that you find truthful and least hurtful. There are times when the truth can actually help... times when it doesn't help anyone though. So it's your call of course.
My heart goes out to you though. People who hurt their kids actively or passivly really burn me.
