BellaOnline Forums Family Siblings what to do about a parent's infidelity

My name is Allison.

I am posting this message with the permission of Lisa Shae, the owner of this web site.

After infidelity occurred in my own life, as part of my coping process I decided to earn my PhD in communication (yeah - I know - this is quite a change from the PR field). Specifically, I have spent years examining the communication surrounding infidelity and how parents talk to their children about this event. I am currently collecting data for my dissertation which focuses more on children than couples themselves. Basically, I want to know how parents and children re-establish their relationship following infidelity (forgiveness and empathy are a big part of this process).

I would like anyone who understands the importance of the communication surrounding parental infidelity to help. If you are an adult who would be willing to complete a confidential online questionnaire please click on the link below.
