Okay let me give you some backround on this question first. My mother is an alcoholic and she has been married for 30+ years to my step father they have two daughters together. My mom has been losing the battle with this disease
and is pretty ill a lot of the time either in hospital or at home with injuries from falls etc. My step father buys the wine she consumes daily and will not divorce her says it is out of the question- he does not want to have to split up the money in my opinion. So he at times acts like he still loves her to her but to us all he acts like he is over it with her. So I just found out from him that my sisters have been trying to send him on dates as they want him to get on with his life BUT dont seem to care that he is still married to our mom. I am not happy about this and about to go off on them- should I be so mad about this or am I over protective towards my mom?
In any given situation, its NOT OK to have an affair behind a back. He is a big boy. If he is tired of living this way, it should be HIS decision, not the kids. I would go off on them.
Stay out of any adult's life, even when invited in. The issue that you see is between the father, mother and their children.
It is up to the parents to put a stop to whatever it is if they choose to.
Okay thank you guys for taking the time to answer and now I will go off on my sisters like I was planning on. I personally think it is wrong if he wants to date then just do the right thing and divorce her first and I think it is creepy to set him up just my opinion. Now Im off
Okay thank you guys for taking the time to answer and now I will go off on my sisters like I was planning on.
Don't recommend that either. Go and talk, but ultimately, not matter your opinion or their actions, it's up to your dad.
"Going off" is going to add more drama to this mess and it's unnecessary.
How did you hear about what you think your step sisters are doing/saying?
