[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sophomore year in college, my roommate's dad left her mother.  Her brother attended the same University and I knew him very well too.  They found out their dad had been having an affair.

They were 19 and 21 and I remember their anguish and hurt.  I spent so much time with them during their family ordeal.  Neither spoke to their dad for a long time after.

I remember them both saying it hurt almost more now at an older age because they felt their entire childhood had been a lie.

I carried that with me a long time.

These are two very strong people, btw.  So the guy poo-poo kids as being babies about it is so messed up in the head.

[b]80% of men that have a father that cheated on their mother eventually cheat on their own wives.[/b]  Yet 2/3s of marriages are faithful.  The majority of that is multi-generational infidelity due to childhood trauma.  He says himself his father cheated.[/quote]

The impact is multi-generational and because it isn't seen right away, it's easy to think there's no impact.  [/quote]
