Nothing. It's their marriage their business. How do you know she doesn't already know?
I am 23. I just moved back hom a few months ago to save up money.
My dad cheated on her before but they made up and are supposed to be working things out.
We're the same age! I had a feeling since I was about 16 that my dad was cheating, but never had "proof" (It was there, I just didn't want to see it because 'My dad would never do that") Well, it all finally came out about 2 years ago. Now I have a 4 year old half sister. I wish I had opened my mouth. Maybe it would not have gotten this far
Apparently your dad doesn't really care about working things out with your mother. If he did, he would stop the nonsense. He got caught once already and doesn't think enough of your mother or the family he made with her to stop doing it. Remember the saying 'Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me." Nip this in the bud now. He'll be fine. If the other woman/ women are that important to him that he needs to keep running back, let them catch him when he falls. You need to think about your mother. She will need you.
see i never had a clue because all this cheating started going down as soon as i left my house for school...he seemed to be getting better but oh well....i know he cares for my sister and i ....but not enough for my mom
my only proof is a dating profile he as set up and a NEW email address...he has been contacting someone through the website but i dont know what has been said
My mother told me my father cheated on her not once but lots of times. I was a child she told me this when I was much older. She stayed until I was 11 because of me which I don't think is a good thing. My parents loved me like no one's business and I always knew this. I loved both my parents I know they are not perfect but they were great parents to me.
I doubt your mother is completely in the dark since you said they got back together and are trying to work it out. I'm still going to say don't get in the middle of it. You will hate it. You don't want to be in the middle of their mess. You don't want to go and choose sides.
You may not know the whole truth or circumstances in their marriage. Live your live and do the best you can. I know it'd hard to see your parents go through rough times but they need to work out their issues themselves.
I'd be happy. She is a poor excuse for a woman and he could do so much better than her. FYI, they are divorced so this would never happen anyway.
My whole thing is that by not telling her, (even if she already knows or not) you are taking away her freedom of choice. (She should have a choice as to whether or not to stay in this relationship!!!)
By not telling, it's as if you're taking your dad's side and are in on "his little secret". And if you go and tell and your mom says 'I already know", then that's great! At least you know your part is done. Yes, there will be arguments and it will be rocky, but that's something that your dad should have thought about before he started up again.
Personal experience there PrettyHaitian? You sound a little perterbed. LOL!
I'm with Liz 100% but I'd investigate and get more facts before I told mom. I'd be putting a stealth keylogger on the computer and seeing what he was typing - but that's just me.

(She should have a choice as to whether or not to stay in this relationship!!!) I could not stand to know that someone knew my SO or husband was cheatinng on me and didn't say anything! Would you? Would anny of you ladies prefer not to kow and just keep living in oblivion?

I let my little sister know. I guess we will sort this out.
