I have found to that my kids who are 22 and 18 have both been affected by my situation. My S(22) who lives away from home has lost all respect for his father and so has D(18) who can't be in the same room.
I think it is a shame that our H's have chosen a path that destroys trust and respect with their kids, that trust and respect will be very hard if not impossible to repair.
I too have rediscovered my faith, lost it for many years, but a close girlfriend who believes that God has a plan for all of us is at work all the time around us presenting challenges so we can grow and become better stronger people.
