"Cheating" to me is just as bad as someone getting up in your face and verbally abusing you! How can you mend a Broken Heart when someone breaks your Trust, and your Spirit too? I too went through a similar situation years ago when I was married. My daughter was only 5 years old at the time and I finally filed for a Divorice because I got tired of her hearing her Father and I argue, and of course his other women to! Plus, children are very smart and they can usually pick up on things (even though we think they are too young to notice), it really does affect them! When we become Mothers I think we pretty much take an oath to provide a good Life, good Home and hopefully a Healthy Environment for them to grow up in. So, I think a child watching Violence and hearing their parents fight is not Healthy! However, I do know that sometimes we can't leave for Financial reasons - there should be more options made available to Women who do want to leave - Like, a Loan they can take out to at least give them money to leave and get on their feet until they can get a job and get control of their Life! That is why so many women stay with a "Cheater" or even in Domestic Violent relationships too! I was sick and had no money or no place to go, so I stayed in a very Violent relationship for years! Thank God we now have Dr. Phil and his wonderful Wife that will listen and help up!
