Yep, parents know everything. That was a hard one, since they are aging and very unhappy with her for what has happened. She had asked them for money without telling them why (got some skin tags removed from her groin), and then asked them for more the second time for a lawyer. They had no idea. Once they found out it was for a retainer fee, they asked her to return the money, and said they would not enable her running away from her marriage.
It's hard to see them suffering also, but I know her family is behind me on this one. My wife doesn't even really contact any of them anymore, and they all used to talk daily, multiple times.
