[quote=Anonymous][quote]So you just totally volunteered the information.

Interesting. [/quote]

Look man, It's not OP's job to cover for this guy. Also, she gave her kid the factual information her H intentionally left out in order to manipulate the narrative.

I lived through this with Dad cheating and leaving, etc. All my relationships with my parents are intact. So let me say this loudly from the cheap seats: you can deliver facts without intending to emotionally manipulate your audience. Your snide remark intends to shame OP and is a tacit admission that this H deserves to not only drive the bus on what happens next, but shape the narrative as well. Hell no.

OP now has her own narrative that she's going to have to deliver and live This does not (again, loudly for those in the back) mean she is de facto poisoning the kids. DC will grow and adjust to the now changed relationships with both parents. This is what I did. This is what kids do. Did my mom poison the well for me against my father? No. Did I know about his cheating? Yeah, when he immediately married her and I was a bridesmaid in his wedding at the age of 13 it was kind of hard to hide. He was a bad husband to my mom. He was a good father to me. I know it's hard for people to understand how those things can be mutually exclusive but they can be *for kids*. My mom may not see him as a great father but I've never heard her say so.

Anyway, take your attacks on OP elsewhere. Can you imagine being in her position? She doesn't need your help making it harder.[/quote][/quote]
