My heart aches whenever I read another sitch here where a WAS thinks nothing of destroying a family.

It is sickening, and yet, I also read a lot here about how the WAS should not be "thrown under the bus," as in that they are to be protected by the LBS so the kids don't think that good old mom or dad shouldn't be made to "look bad."

Uh....excuse me, but the WAS's jumped under the bus all by themselves. And it is exactly right that kids are not stupid. They have eyes and ears. WAS's are not so clever that they can keep the kids from realizing who is actually ripping the family to shreds.

Why insult your children by lying and covering for the selfish WAS? Oh, mom doesn't want to be seen as an adulterer? Then don't sneak off with an OM. Simple. But good old "mom" will probably blow smoke up the kids' @sses by saying that things are "complicated."

Huh...."complicated"....."Complicated" is just an easy word that a coward would use to describe their disgusting behavior.
