My father-in-law is a man of God, a very respected and admired one at that. All his children look up to him, including my husband. The two of them work together. He doesn’t spell out the words but I know my husband loves his father more than his mother.

He has confided in me that his father has a side chick, and even a child outside his marriage. When I asked how a man of God could break his marriage vows, he said, “My mother is a handful. All she does is cause my father problems.”
Well, it’s not a lie. My mother-in-law is known for picking fights wherever she goes. Her only duty at home is to cook for her husband, but she doesn’t even do that. She contributes absolutely nothing to the household, not even financially. Simply because she refuses to work or earn anything for herself, let alone support her family.
According to my husband, on the few occasions that she agreed to start something, she ended up spending the capital on sewing clothes for funerals and weddings she wasn’t even invited to.

“Just because your mother is a difficult woman is no justification for your father’s affair,” I told him once.
He agreed with me, “I don’t condone my father’s extramarital affair. If I was in his shoes I wouldn’t cheat on her. I would rather file for a divorce.”
My Wife Has The Spiritual Powers To Detect Cheating
I believe that’s the best thing to do. For a man of his status, it would be better for my father-in-law to divorce his wife than this whole cheating thing he has going on. I am concerned my husband knows this yet he has chosen to keep his father’s secret.
They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. If he knows about his father’s affair and is helping cover it up, what does that make him? Should I be worried that he might end up like the old man? Right now he may have no intention of doing that but the Bible says evil communication corrupts good manners. What if his father influences him wrongly?

Your father-in-law did not have a good wife. If you become a good wife to you husband, you’ll have nothing to fear.
Hello Britney, your concern is valid but from your story you have a very level headed man who knows what is right and wrong and what to do so this is my counsel;
1. Be the opposite of his mum. Do not repeat the pattern of the mother to cause a trigger. You admitted to the flaws of the mother so please don’t be her
2. Law of influence. You spoke about evil communication so be the good communication. Create a space where you can the first person that comes to mind if he is to make any decision. That way you are able to influence His thoughts Godly and also with time get to know his close friends, identify the ones with good morale standards and subconsciously recommend their lifestyle to him when conversations like that come up…
You will do well. God bless you and the best of luck.
