[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You broke up his nuclear family. Yes, your husband cheated, but did you try to work it out? Did you show your child how you tried tooth and nail to hold your family together with glue and duct tape? He's telling you that you didn't try hard enough.[/quote] Not OP. Are you freaking serious? A child with no concept of romantic love or adult relationships does not get to decide what it looks like to try hard enough. OP has appropriately shielded her child from bearing the burden of adult problems. It may feel like they didn’t try and the kid can work through that with a therapist or counselor - but children do not get to dictate the marital status of their parents. [/quote] +1. Kids do not understand abuse. What my exDH did to me with the infidelities and lying was deeply abusive and traumatic. There is no "trying" hard enough to overcome that. My kids don't dictate that I will stay in an abusive, unhealthy relationship. [/quote]
