Could you raise his child?

What if your husband had an affair and there was a child. Could you help him raise the child? I saw a story on the Steve Wilkos show where a husband had a one night stand that resulted in a child and was paying child support but he wasn't getting to see her. And when he did, he found out that the child was being abused. Well, his wife adopted the child and is raising the child as her own.The adopted mom loves the child as her own flesh and blood.

Yes I could....that is one way to put aside your feelings for the betterment of someone else's life....and a child...the child didn't have anything to do with what went on so shouldn't be punished. It might even help a little in getting over the sting of the affair.

Me? I Never wanted children so if my man wanted to be a parent, we would have to part. We could see each other every once in a while , but I don't want to raise Any child.

To be honest, I don't know. Be sure it's not the child's fault. However, when I see this child, I can't help thinking about the bad memory. It's just like a thorn in my heart and I can't let it go. I really don't know whether I can be generous to forgive all of these. I hate being betrayed. And it seems that I have to take the responsibility to some mistakes that don't create by me. But if the child is adorable and understanding and considerate, perhaps I will change my mind. I love China
