[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 105537, member: 3626"] It really sounds like your son has figured out he is too young for this relationship and is trying to find a way out. Granted, cheating is not the best solution. A lot of people cheat to get out of a relationship. They don't have the courage to say it is over, so do something so unacceptable, so unforgiveable to force the other person to end it. I know I was one of those -- I didn't cheat but I'd merrily drive the poor guy over the edge when I decided I wanted out. It may also be that he feels so much pressure at home that the girl he is seeing on the side is relief. None of this makes what he is doing right, but it does make him human. If he's going to cheat, now is the time to do it. At least he's not married yet and the child involved is not his. I know it will make it harder for your family if they break up but it really sounds like that may be the best solution at this time. Honestly, the family dynamics shouldn't factor into it -- it has to be up to these two to do what is best for each of them. Maybe you could have an honest discussion with your son and advise him to be honest with everyone? [/QUOTE]
