Cheaters Part 3

Some people say it's best to stay together for the children. Give me a break. When someone is cheating, many times the children are fully aware and hurt as much as the non-cheating parent. Children experience trauma and can actually black out memories. My dad and mother were married for 50 plus years, and yes he had his share of women. Many times I just wanted him to go away and never return. There were seven of us, so my mom, hung in there. But trust me, we all wanted to have peace and I desperately wanted my mom to be happy.

So those of you who are cheating, think about how your behavior affects your children, if you have children. Think of how those children are ashamed, sad and hurt because their mother or daddy is hurt. Think of how your actions will affect their lives as adults - later in life. You know, the Bible says, "You reap what you sow". So don't sow bad seeds for your children to possibly reap one day.
