"He took vows. She never took vows."

Well, that is completely your prerogative, and I hope she appreciates the friend she has in you.

Yeah, that's what frustrates me a wee bit when the "nobody owns you" argument is trotted out, as here in the above article:

IDK why it evens matters that the vow taker is "worse". If I pee on a public restroom floor and someone else poops on it, like, yeah, the public pooper is comparatively worse. But we are both disgusting either way.

I went through this. Best friend survived some shitty life experiences, and her behavior changed, and one of those changes was that she became a serial "other woman". I wasn't okay with it — for the reasons you mention, and also because I don't support the concept that being an "accomplice" in someone else's breach…

My mom had lunch (when she was 7 months pregnant, high risk pregnancy too) with the woman my dad was cheating on her with. She asked her to please leave the situation and let her and my dad finish the pregnancy. My mom told her, if they split up after that, whatever. What's done is done.

I didn't say her actions weren't wrong; I said it wasn't my responsibility to determine her moral code.

I would advise them to stop it; first that situation is not ethical and they are both morally wrong. It's doesn't sound as if it was an open relationship or polyamorous. He was cheating. They both were hurting the wife. I'm sure your friend would just have loved it if her husband was cheating on her.

I still kind of feel like it was wrong for you friend to be with the guy. Do his wife's feelings not matter at all in this whole situation?

People who help others cheat are gross and lack personal ethics. That's just a truth.

You're basically absolving your friend of any blame for being a shitty person.

"Gluten-free" is not a healthier eating habit. "Refined starch-free" and "beer-free" and "tons and tons of excess calories-free" are healthy eating habits. Whether they do or do not include gluten is completely irrelevant to their healthfulness.

Yeah, I think some people are really going a weird place with this that I'm not comfortable with. Cool, don't make your kids hug people. But I don't think it's particularly accurate or responsible to suggest that your children will be more protected from child molesters if you don't make them hug grandma, or that…

The description of this post as "fact-checking" needs to be fact-checked.

The reason children's books are more influential is because more people are able to understand them. People don't get subtext.

You take that back.

Yes, because if you're not forced at gunpoint to do something, you don't give up anything to do it and shouldn't be appreciated for it.

I agree there are ethical concerns, but can we L/D RNs agree that trying TOLAC after *3* CS is very risky?!
