My Mum Is Dating Married me-n, Now sh-e Wants To Wreck My Marriage – d@ughter Cries

I am in my thirties, married with two adorable children. I come from what you will term a ‘silver spoon’ family and have parents who were, and still are generous to their children.

The problem is our mother. We’ve associated h-er with a string of boy-friends over the years; the fact that sh-e is now a grandmother hasn’t cramped h-er wayward ways at all.

This time around sh-e has been c@u-ght with my
husband’s uncle and this is causing friction between me and my husband. h!s uncle’s wife is spoiling for a showdown and is trying to tar me with the same brush as my mother’s.

When I eventually tackled mum about this latest affair of hers, sh-e told me it was none of my business what sh-e did and that I should concentrate more on my marriage.

There is no point involving my dad as he’s just recovered from a mild stroke. What is more he’s always turned a blind eye to mum’s philandering. How do I get h-er off my husband’s uncle?

Dear Janet,
You are not exactly talking about teenagers, you know. It takes two to tango… You have tried your best to call your mum to order, but has your husband had a word with h!s uncle? This affair will burn itself out just like other affairs your mum had in the past, but it is about time you children had a word with h-er.

Discretion, they say, is the better part of valour… I wonder the kind of mother sh-e is.
