    I think you should stay out of it. Your mom and dad are adults in a relationship with each other. If she's a bad mom, then that's between you and her. If she's a bad wife, that's between your parents.

    by stalking her you know what's going on, thus your imagination will not run wild...you'll find the answer.

    asking her if she's cheating, well, she's going to deny (assuming she is cheating) then get defensive and you still won't know.

    I would hold off on doing anything if your momz is truly cheating. Suppose the new guy makes a considerably larger salary than your dad. You can parlay your momz guilt into a new car or a trip to Europe. In the long run you'd be better off playing your momz guilt and hitting up the lover for cash.

    But what should I do? I've pretty much ignored them much of the time hoping they sort their **** out. But it's obviously getting worse.

    You let your dad handle it. It's his marriage. If I was having problems, I wouldn't involve my children in it. That would just F them up.

    What are you going to do? Follow her and take pictures of what goes down? If so... post pictures :p

    Well I'm leaning on the stalking or at the very least follow where she goes after work.

    you can't make your parents love each other. it's life. people drift apart. the sucky thing is, if they start filing divorce one of them may use you against the other. just got to hold on strong and don't take sides.

    my dad made me go with him to follow my mom. it pretty much confirmed everything he suspected. :( but i already knew, b/c like i said, she took me and my sister on her dates. this was all before i knew any better.

    I would try to find out as much as you can, and then confront her........by yourself.....

    Don't do it with your dad, he needs to work it out on his own.

    My Dad gets very emotional and he drinks whenever there's a problem (which nowadays is almost every day). And he's a particularly mean drunk.

    Kind of like the way you're making assumptions about your mom?

    Well, sounds like an unhealthy place to live. Sorry to hear about your situation. What is following your mom going to do? You're going to confront her and then what? Have you made a plan?

    I really don't know. My relatives are hounding me about doing something and I really just want to confirm what is going on.

    Well he is the son and that guy being an ass is a total stranger kinda difference.

    The OP is 19 and of age, doubt he will be used in a divorce. How old were you when that stuff was happening between your parents?

    This really depends on your race/culture. In some cultures the whole family might get involved.
