what would you do if you knew your mom was cheating on your dad?

Answer 1

Talking to your mom won't erase the cheating. Tell your dad, he has a right to know. You keeping this secret is deceitful. Follow truth, always.

Answer 2

In reality a very dangerous and explosive situation. Its a catch 22 where damn if you do and damn if you dont. You dont want to start trouble between them but yet fell you must do something. If you go to your dad, you know what will happen and youll be the blame and if you go to your mom, theres bound to be some conflict with promises made not to tell dad, but if he ever finds out...whoa! If you belong to a church, talk to your minister, otherwise if this was a one time deal, for the best of all involved it may well be worth the time to leave it alone and let it lie as a family skeleton, but you must decide for yourself what is right or wrong and what you can live with. Good luck

Answer 3

Wow you know that some thing similar to this happened to me. When I was young my mom married this guy so he was like my dad cause he was the only father figure that I had in my life. We were very close and my mom started cheating on him with more than one person so I told him and told him that he should leave her she was no good for him. So he went back and told her every thing that I said to him and she told him that I was lying and every thing just got worse form there on. But I feel like I didn't do anything wrong.

Answer 4

Its not as simple as everyone else is making it sound. First question to ask your mom is " Do you still love my dad?" , its yes or no, not I don't know. If the answer is no or I don't know I think u should suggest a divorce. If its yes but they're having issues suggest marriage counsling. Finding someone else to fill the gap only makes matters worse if their still in love. It's like I told My parents, "I will understand if you spilt up ur not happy together". If ur having trouble dealing with it because you feel ur in the middle of it speak to a counsler as well it is NEVER the childrens fault EVER. Whatever happens Good luck!

Answer 5

You should not be in the middle of that.

If it was me, I'd act like I didn't know. Then, when I couldn't deal with it anymore I'd confront Mom. I wouldn't tell Dad. It's not your place and I think it would humiliate him for you to tell him what his wife is doing.

I know someone that happened to. He caught his Mom and he was devastated. Years later now he and his mom's relatioship is fine and also with his Dad but his trust in women was shot to hell.

Parents are still married, although not happily.
That's terrible. So sorry.

Answer 6

Talk to your mom. Give her a chance to explain and to stop the cheating. Don't say anything to your dad. It will only cause pain.

Answer 7

take pictures of her in the act. then tell your dad. when he calls you a liar show him the pictures and call him some bad cuss words for not believing you. then tell him you are thinking about joining the after school stripper program. do that just for spite. but be sure to tell him. the truth is always going to be better than good news.

don't talk to her first, b/c then she'll go to him and make you out to be the bad guy in this situation. go straight to him.

Answer 8

I'm closer to my mum so I guess I will talk to her. Maybe not directly but try to get her to tell me everything herself. If my dad has been a good husband to her, I will tell her my views. But if my dad has been a bad husband (beating her up, gambler etc.), I will ask her about what's her thought and if the third party is really nice to her. Afterall, she needs a companion.

Answer 9

Id tell mom i knew. I wouldn't say nothing to dad, but mom would owe me BIG.

Answer 10

for starters dont tell your dad it will only cause pain and resentment toward you this is a lose lose situation, talk to your mom about it, she's your mom she loves you let her know the pain its causing you and hopefully she'll stop if not let your father find out on his own and never let him know you knew all along.
