‘He chose her over us’: 16-year-old daughter refuses to check on father's pregnant partner during her mother's custody weeks, citing her father's affair with the woman going back 4+ years

Children are often expected to assume the role of an adult in their personal family structures, and this is especially the case when a parent is trying to punish them for having normal reactions to unpleasant situations.

Why is an actual adult inciting a reaction from a child in the first place? This type of behavior only stokes the flame of a child's unpleasantries and, in turn, forces the child to withdraw and rebel even further.

Witnessing a divorce as the result of a marital affair is not easy on anyone, let alone a child. In the same way that one spouse is betrayed, the child is as well; No amount of apologetic rhetoric or promises of a better relationship will mend the injury of betrayal. Forgiveness does not equal forgetfulness, and the teen in this next story is living proof of that.

The teen's father, who cheated on her mother for several years before unveiling the truth because of his affair partner's pregnancy, expects his daughter to check up on his pregnant partner. The father, who is clearly audacious in nature, fails to realize that the teen does not owe his affair partner anything, especially during the weeks she stays at her mother's. If she had it her way, she'd never see her father again. Scroll to read the full story.
