My STBX doesn't even care that my son doesn't want to be around this OW. That really angers me..
I just hope God will give me the strength to deal with this stuff.

TR - This is the belief and "mantra" of most Unfaithful Spouses, "the kids will be 'okay'." It's not even what I would call "fog," it's the blindness to sin and it's consequences.

My wife's OM used to tell her the same thing about our children. He is a nonbeliever and comes from a broken home and there is much divorce and remarriage in his family. To him, and probably to your husband (and his family also, from what you have written), they think it's "okay" to be selfish no matter who gets hurt because "they will get over it."

Everything, including your STBXH's desire to have your son meet (and accept) the Adulteress in your personal family drama, is motivated by his selfishness. He wants to "prove" to himself that your son WILL be "okay" with his adultery.

Sadly, it is your responsibility to continue to talk to your son and to teach him about God and God's commands. Just make sure that your son knows that, biblically, adultery is NOT allowed and not "okay" in God's eyes.

Be assured that God will be there for you in these tough times with help and comfort as you deal with the trauma that your STBXH has brought into your life and your son's life.

God bless.
