Oh NLW. I wish we weren't DBers when these things happened. I wish we could just react and be primitive and tear them apart (literally with teeth and nails). But we need to be civilized.
Your D16 is watching you. She's not completely fixated on your reaction to all this now but she is learning how to be a woman in this sitch.
Unfortunately, my dad was a cheater, my grandfather was a cheater so it's no surprise my H is a cheater. Teach your daughter what a respectable woman does in these sitchs because if she is ever in your sitch, she will most likely remember this and respond in a similar fashion.
But I would love to be sitting next to you and holding your earrings as you pull your hair back and let her have it.
However, we need to remember, be a person of integrity. Don't give her as much importance as she needs it. You are D16s mom and she would much rather have your attention than OWs.
