Divorcing your partner is never going to be easy, no matter how amicable the split. This is especially true if you have children together, or if your partner had an affair. And for one mum, the situation was even more complicated - her partner's affair was with her own sister.
The mum took to Reddit to share her story. She explained that she and her husband divorced when her youngest daughter was two, after she discovered they had been having an affair for some time. Even after the divorce, the pair continued to make excuses for their behaviour, so she waited to see if their relationship would truly be over. After six months, she served her husband divorce papers.
The mum then found out that her sister, who was now her children's stepmother, had been telling them lies about how the divorce happened. Understandably, her daughter was upset and asked her why she had broken up her family. The mum then gathered her other daughters and told them the truth.
At first, the children did not believe her, so she asked them to ask their father and grandparents for the full story. After this, the mum was called all sorts of names by her ex-husband, who said she was a 'sh***y mother'.
People in the comments largely sided with the mum, with one saying: "You need to contact an attorney about this situation. They have attempted to poison the girls against you." Another said, "They were being lied to by their father and stepmother, you corrected the lie." And someone else commented, "My sister would be dead to me. Hurt me and take my husband, I will recover. Hurt my kids like that... you are dead to me. I would be in my lawyer's office ASAP."
It's understandable that the mum is wondering if she did the right thing. Everyone has their own opinion, so what do you think? Let us know in the comments below.
