[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would find it completely ridiculous that I would be expected to break up my nice life, my financial footing, my social fabric, my kid's stable lifestyle and my amiable relationship with my husband just because one or both of us make occasionally swap bodily fluids with someone else.  Sexual extracurriculars do not threaten spousal status as long as they are treated as diversions.  [/quote]
Make sure you pass on these same home lessons to your children. Your daughter will be with a cheating husband and your response will be "hunny he pays the bills, your nice lifestyle, you have kids .. so what if he is cheating. 1
Or 2 STDs won't kill you..now suck it up, suppress your emotions  and stay with him.
You are fortunate to marry such a wonderful man ".

I am going to guess that she doesn't tell her daughter that her husband cheated, and so in her daughter's mind, this continues to be something that married people simply do not do.  
However, I am going to guess that the people who divorce make sure that their kids know that their spouse cheated.  So, this is something that people do.  The kids MIGHT even like the cheating parent better, and go on to think that this is something that even good people do.  
Which of these families do you really think is teaching their kids that "sometimes people cheat," or "sometimes wonderful men cheat?"

I am not saying that it is always better to stay with someone.  I actually like the reference to alcoholism earlier in the thread.  If someone is an alcoholic, but they quit drinking and are committed to sobriety and you have kids, then you stay with them.  If someone is an alcoholic and they are continuing to drink, then you leave.  Same deal with cheating.
