[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean 59 chasing a 22 yo is gross, but not a predator.

And regarding the cheating, ALL my friends whose parents divorced because of cheating found out about it later. Some were furious and the fact that both parents covered up the cheating landed them in therapy. My best friend was so furious with her one parent for cheating, but equally furious with the other parent for making the cheater not responsible for breaking up her parents and household. This was while we were in college and her parents had divorced in middle school.  I'm not sure what the answer is though and I also don't think you should tell her.

His comeuppance is coming. [/quote]

Disagree, and this sounds made up.  [b]Kids don’t care WHY parents are divorcing, [/b]and frankly, emotionally mature parents won’t be confiding in their minor kids and talking about infidelity.  It is YOUR problem not theirs.  And very rare is cheating the only cause of divorce- cheating is a manifestation from a problematic marriage or problems within one person.  It’s a symptom, not a cause.  Marital problems shouldn’t be discussed with children.  My mother used to tell me about my father’s cheating and a child.  Guess who I don’t talk to anymore? [/quote]
You are wrong about this. Maybe YOU put the cheating dirtbag above your mother and didn’t care, but plenty of kids see parental cheating as a betrayal of the family. It’s the cheating that breaks up the family, and kids see that and feel that. 
It’s good that OPs daughter knows how disgusting her father is. I doubt she will be bringing any of her friends around him, hed probably try to proposition them 🙄[/quote]
