[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with those that said out of sight out of mind. I know a family that built a huge custom home in a gated neighborhood. He cheated, divorced, married ap and supports her kids. They all moved into the new home. His ex and his own biological girls are left to rent out a tiny place in a rough area. They are in actual poverty and stark contrast to previous life. They are clearly not the smartest group of people as exwife won't even take him to court for support because she feels its his money and she is proud, nevermind the girls she has to support.[/quote]

This is on her not to go after child support. [/quote]

I agree and everyone has told her she is failing the girls in that way. It would not be much but it would make a big difference for them. The girls are the only losers here. The guy gets his new dysfunctional family, the ex gets her "pride" and the girls get squat.[/quote]

I don't think you understand all the dynamics. She probably doesn't want her kids over there in that mess, and her girls probably don't want to go either. I've seen that quite a few times. Usually Karma ends up biting the cheaters in the butt. They may be happy to be rid of him,  the big house...who cares. He'll have newer and bigger problems as is often the case.[/quote]
