My mother is having an affair.

I am writing to seek your advice regarding a challenging situation within my family, and I would greatly appreciate your insights. To provide some context, I am a 29-year-old with a 2-year-old child. Currently, my parents' relationship is strained due to my mother's alleged affair. As far as I know, this relationship has been ongoing since I was approximately 15 years old. The age gap between my father, who is 65, and my mother adds to the complexity of the situation. Recently, my mother has been helping me with household chores, as I work the night shift and require assistance in taking care of my daughter. She willingly agreed to support me and even suggested that I stay in our family home, as opposed to residing at my partner's place. However, over the course of this year, things have taken a turn for the worse. My mother is frequently absent from the house, often disappearing for three days each week. While she claims to be working part-time, I stumbled upon a message indicating that she has been living with another man since last year. The turmoil and hurt caused by this situation have left me feeling lost and uncertain about how to proceed. I am torn between informing my father or remaining silent, given that I am now an adult. Additionally, I am unsure about whether I should comply with my mother's wishes and cater to her demands. It is a complex situation that requires careful consideration. I would be immensely grateful if you could offer your advice on how I should navigate this difficult circumstance. #pleasehelp #respect_post #brokenfamily #familyproblem
