This is a grey area. YOu want to tell the truth because that is what you believe in , but you dont want to hurt the kids, at all costs you want to protect them.

I have not mentioned to my youngest ever that his mom had an affair with OM and that was one of the reasons why mom and dad are not together. That would really hurt his relationship with his mother. My parents wanted me to tell him the truth but they are just being bitter and not seeing his needs.

He loves his mother and respects her. There is NO need to mess with that. The petty side of me though would not like to see him get along with OM, but the logical side of me( it does exist), sees that as being painful for my son as well since OM is going to be around. Who knows for how long, so these are years my son can never buy back so I want them to always be happy for him. His childhood, you cant put a price on it.

Just be careful what you say and Protect them ALWAYS.

ITs not easy, but you will walk away the better person in the end.
