Father Disowns Children After Learning They Helped Cover up Their Mother’s Affair for More Than 5 Years

Your family should always come first in all you do. But if your whole family had been withholding something from you for more than five years, how would you respond? Would you be able to move on and forgive, or would the past permanently ruin your relationship?

The story below is an account of a heartbroken father. The original poster (OP) and his wife of more than 25 years recently got divorced. The divorce was quick because of his ex-wife's adultery, which has been going on for more than five years. To make matters worse, he found out that both of his kids were aware of the affair from the beginning and had chosen to remain silent in an effort to 'save' the family. 

From that point on, despite his best efforts, OP couldn't get over his children's betrayal and distanced himself claiming that the relationship can never be the same. That being said, be sure to read the story below if you're interested in learning more about what transpired and what occurs next! After you're done, remember to read the account of the guy who discovered the shocking truth about his daughter's paternity after uncovering his wife's long-term affair with his closest friend!
