Woman refuses to pick up ex-husband’s affair child from school
It’s heartbreaking when one’s partner has an affair. Due to this, one might start self-hating or self-loathing, suffer from loss and anxiety, and have lower self-respect.
Most importantly, it affects the child negatively, if the couple has any. The child may trust the parent that didn’t cheat more and view the one that cheated as the reason for their family falling apart.
This topic was highlighted in a recent Reddit post in which a woman refuses to pick up her ex-husband’s child from school.
Woman says no to picking up her son’s half-sister from school
The author starts the post by saying that she is a single mother of two boys, 11 and 10 years old. She and their father were together for 13 years before they divorced 5 years ago.
He confessed that he was cheating on her. Since they were friends before they became a couple, the confession hurt her a lot. So the divorce wasn’t easy for her as she couldn’t even look at him for what he did even though he wanted to stay friends.
Soon after the divorce, he married his affair partner and had a daughter. Later, they had a son. But they lost a child recently and discovered that his wife had cancer.
