[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, my dad cheated. His lies to me were the first. I was 14, a vulnerable age. For your daughters it is like a betrayal on the level of an affair but worse. They don't have much emotional experience. I don't judge the decision one way or another but you need family therapy and your DH has to fully own hiw much he hurt and betrayed his daughters. They need to be heard, validated and not censored. It's also ok if they don't understand but they must feel heard.[/quote] Agree. I think you should at least consider your DH living outside the home for 6 months while you rebuild your relationship, and talk to the counselor about pros and cons. I'd also be thinking really seriously about the possibility that the angry daughter knew more about DH's bad behavior that she's not sharing. At the very least, OP needs to have a serious conversation and let the girl know that she can always come to her mom with any problem or information, and she will be believed.[/quote]
