[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the thing we're trying to tell you, OP, is that the harm in staying is greater than the harm in leaving. Kids don't need big houses or lots of money. Yes, divorce is hard, but many children have been through it and survived. On the other hand, growing up knowing that daddy did this terrible thing and mommy just sat there and accepted it is a very damaging reality, in my mind. What does this teach your son? What does this teach your daughter? I think they deserve parents who model good, strong choices. [/quote] This is the adult perspective you are projecting onto a child. The only person who experienced it as a child made a strong distinction between adultery as a moral failure to an adult, and abandonment of children as a much worse failure. But to be sure, there are no perfect choices here. [/quote]
