Would you want your parents to stay together if one cheated on the other?

Question

Would you want your parents to stay together if one cheated on the other?

Answer 1

Well my parents did stay together the first two times my mum cheated. Then the third time she left my dad and it was all over anyway, so really what was the point. At least I got a few extra years being around my dad 24/7, I wouldn't stay with my fiance if he cheated on me

Answer 2

i would tell the parent who is cheating that you know and he or she should stop because it would her hurt your mom or dads feeling if he does it again the then tell your mom or dad because then he or she doesn't like them

Answer 3

Well im soooo messed up it doesnt affect ma anymore because my stepdad chaeted on my mom and they kinda fight a lot bout it for the past 4 months but im worried about what its doing to me personally this might seem mean but i think they act like children ans i woulnt mind but for now they are together

Answer 4

I would leave it up to them. I want my parents to be happy whether that means divorce, or trying to make things work. I would count on them to make the right decision for our family.

Just because people do horrible things, doesn't make them a horrible person.  

Answer 5

I would want my parents to live their lives the way that is best for them and not push my views on them. It isn't the child's choice. Honestly the child shouldn't even be exposed to this or know about it.

Answer 6

No. I think cheating is wrong, and if someone is going to cheat, they might as well leave the person they are cheating on if they don't like them enough to be committed.  

Answer 7

No because thats showing me that if my man cheated on me that I should just accept it

Answer 8

I personally would not. If it happened once, it can happen again. I don't want my mother/father to go through that experience again.

Answer 9

I think it would be ultimately their decision, however if they worked it out and could be happy together then I would say yes. As long as it didn't have a negative effect on their kids, or if they argued about it. I would hope though that if that happened the kids hopefully wouldn't have to find out about it. It's so unfortunate when that happens because the kids tend to blame one parent or the other when there is more to the entire situation than what the kids can see.

Answer 10

No, of course not. I have more respect for them than that.

Answer 11

My parents cheated on each other. It still hurts me to a point that I hate them. When I found out I felt bad and wanted them to break up, but to tell you the truth, I would give anything to have a regular family. I wish I never found out about them cheating and it really affected my childhood. I feel like I didn't get a fun childhood because I had to grow up a lot sooner than everyone else. It hurts me that they would do that together and then stay together, but I think it hurts me more that I don't get to have one family. I want my parents to go to counseling, actually LISTEN to the counselors, say their sorryl and mean it, and keep my family together.

If this is what happened to you, I would think of the consequences. Going to two houses at Christmas, only getting to see a certain parent every other weekend, or having your parents stay with other peope. Life is hard and I wish the best to you.
