[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're very young and unable to understand what was going on in your parents' marriage. If someone cheats, it may well be a cry for help. It's not easy for a SAHM to leave and start her own life, especially after having raised children for many years. You're looking at everything too black and white. When men cheat, it's different, they have jobs and can set up a new living situation tomorrow. For a SAHM this is often not an option and unless she wants to lose access to kids, she's stuck. Which is why young women are advised to have careers: if you have your own money, you have your independence. [/quote]

I don’t understand the point you are trying to make.   Publicly, she is a big proponent of how important being a SAHM is and how much she loves it.   Then she leaves me in charge at 13 to cheat with someone we all knew while my dad was working.  He never abused her, cheated or was controlling, they always had a shared bank account and assets.

I don’t think age changes what is right and wrong, especially when she was the main influence in creating the value system I use to establish right and wrong.  She cut off contact with her dad because of his cheating and was always very vocal about it, but she was cheating herself.  How can you ever trust a hypocrite like that?  Low character, no integrity, no moral compass and judgmental?  Thinking about your comment makes me resent her more.[/quote]
