[quote=Anonymous]My dad cheated on my mom, they are divorced.  At the risk of being cruel, some of you are snowflakes.  My parent's marriage isn't mine.  Yes, the holidays are a hassle, I see them both less, they see their grandkids less, I probably see dad less than mom because dad's AP is a real peach of a woman.

Here's the thing:  I have no idea what my parent's bedroom was like, whether dad was denied for years, whether mom was good in the sack, all of these questions are beyond my brain's ability to process.  I know that whatever black and white thinking I had as a child about good and evil sort of vanished when I got out of college and I haven't seen many people rush to erase MLK day when the news broke he was a serial cheater.  And I don't see how my life would have been more authentic if dad up and left earlier to take up with his peach prior to getting caught or whatever happened.  The result is the same.

People are human, even our parents, they screw up sometimes a lot and I their errors don't dictate my happiness.[/quote]
