- Femme - Posted February 18, 2009 I was reading a book a while back about a man who cheats on his wife with her best friend. She only finds this out 6 months after his death. When she confronts her best friend...her best friend admits the affair but also reveals that she's dying of cancer. She begs her to raise her 2 year old daughter. The woman is conflicted about raising the daughter of her late husband and his mistress but at the end agrees to honor her best friend's dying wish. Anyway, I guess this question would be for the women. Let's say your hypothetical husband has been secretly married to his second wife for a while. She dies. He comes to you and tells you about the situation and you decide to stay with him. Would you raise his child(ren) with that woman if he asked or insist that they be raised by her family (or anyone else for that matter)? Men, if your first wife refuses to raise your children by your late second wife, would you divorce her or have them raised by someone else? **No trolling please** Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valenteenah. Posted February 18, 2009 Isis, you and your hypothetical questions! Hypothetical answer: The child is innocent, therefore I wouldn't have any qualms about looking after her, even if I'm no longer married to the yellow-bellied ba$tard who fathered her, which is more than likely. Now, what's brought on this little scenario? Have you been watching Arabian soaps, again? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ashkiro Posted February 18, 2009 ^LOL in pointing out the obvious, I don't think there was a mix up just a transition into asking the question. None of you gentlemen addressed the question the poster directed towards the men. So Mr. Geel_jire take a crack at it. Isis that's really a difficult question, but I would have to agree with Valenteenah, the children are innocent afterall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NGONGE Posted February 18, 2009 ^^ Originally posted by Isis Naomi: **No trolling please** I don't mean to troll but I really don't understand the question. It's not something I would do at any rate. The mother should always be the openly known wife. The bit on the side should always remain the no-children-under-any-circumstances bit on the side. This is the internationally accepted rule of cheaters-R-US. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gheelle.T Posted February 18, 2009 That book you read sounds more like a fiction novel/story..I doubt if your hypothetical question can be answered.. NG, like the way you coined that "Cheater-R-Us" mm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
