Today’s topic: I’m leaving my husband Dear Morning Show, My husband is having an affair with our youngest son’s girlfriend’s mother and there may be a three-year-old baby girl that is his. My son and his girlfriend have been in the same class from kindergarten to (now) eighth grade. I found out six months ago that my 17-year-old son saw them together downtown a few times. Months later, he took his own life (true story). Please understand that his actions were not just because he saw his dad cheating. There were other issues he had with my husband. But his friend also told me that my son was so hurt and angry that he would cry all the time. I can’t tell you how much pain that my family is feeling right now. My other children do not know about their father cheating but I am lost. I don’t know what to do for my children or myself. The pain is greater that anyone could ever think it would be. I have to gain strength in order to save my children from themselves. I have made plans to leave my husband and take the children with me. I don’t know if I should tell them the truth or just let them know that things didn’t work out. A little advise is needed please. –Mother, wife and woman in a lot of pain
