[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, why would you want to keep the other woman away from the child?

I understand the hurt feelings because she was the affair partner, but unless she is abusive to your child or has other behavioral or psychological issues that put your child’s wellbeing at risk, there is no reason for you to prevent your child from being around her.

How old is your child? Is there conflict? Did the child express any reasons not to want to be around her?

As much as it hurts you, it’s probably now best for child to normalize back relationships including with the dad and his partner.[/quote] My child is 13. She's not abusive from what I hear she's a lovely person even though she's a homewrecker. She doesn't have children and I am worried about her trying to mother my child. [b]My child already has a mother[/b]. [/quote]

And your child knows that. So instead of acting destructive by trying to prevent your child from being around your ex’s partner, focus on your own relationship with your child so that it is positive (as positive as it could be at 13 ;) ) and work on building your confidence back. This woman is not omnipotent that she stole your dh’ love and will take away your child’s love from you. Focus on yourself and finding balance and peace. It is easier for the child to have positivity rather than conflict and drama in their lives, especially at teen years, and fighting this with your ex will do just that and end up hurting the child and then you.[/quote]
