Thank everyone for the wonderful advice. I will be talking to her dad this morning. My nerves are so bad right. I am packing all the kids clothes, toys, pictures to give to her dad. I do not want anything in my house to remind of this relationship. Her sister text me this morning to tell that I have her complete support in this mess. I should not be taking care of her kids. The reason he is nervous about her dad finding out is because we have known this child since the age of 12 and anyway u look at its is so nasty.

I feel so bad right now because like a fool i chose to belive this man when I questioned him about this girl. He was like people just have dirty minds. He blames everyone for his problems. He is like you are my wife and I suppose to stand beside him no matter what. He told me this morning that I looked so unhappy and that I am too thin. I cant eat right now. I drink coffee n the morning and drink red bull all day long which is not good. I got to get it together. I am trying to figure out how to tell her dad n a tactful way. I do not want trash this girl at all.

yes. They are not his. She had paternity test on all 3 becuase of the guys she had been with. The last baby she wasnt sure if it was her boyfriend child or some other she was dealing with at the same time. It was the other guy's child but her boyfriend treats the baby like his (he is such a good guy that wanted to marry this girl) only the little girl is his and she is the one that I am really attached to. Have you personally seen the paternity test results? Or are you going by what this girl told you? It would not be hard to lie about this.

If the OW has chosen to trash herself by having an A with a married man, well, the fallout is her problem. Let her father know that you are telling him this to enlist his support in ending the A. You'll do fine. Now get something to eat, okay? You want to take good care of yourself.

He is like you are my wife and I suppose to stand beside him no matter what. Most betrayed spouses made the mistake of believing their WS. You want to believe the person you've entrusted your life to. Don't feel bad because you wanted to believe him. No, you're not required to stand by him while he makes a shambles of your marriage. He is endangering everything the two of you have. No sane person should stand idly by and watch their world explode.

NO WAFFLING ALLOWED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Does that help any?  Take the plunge, tell her dad, and get it over with. You'll feel so much better, and don't worry, you'll be fine. Your WH will be furious, so just expect it and ride out the storm calmly and with serenity. And seriously girl, you need to cut back on all that caffeine and eat something.

I I am too thin. I cant eat right now. I drink coffee n the morning and drink red bull all day long which is not good. I got to get it together. Part of Plan A is self-care. If you do not take care of yourself, your Plan A will suffer (as will Plan B in the future) because your "Taker" needs some loving. Indulge yourself. Love your "Taker". WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT SELF-CARE?Plan some things. I am trying to figure out how to tell her dad n a tactful way. I do not want trash this girl at all. Something like: "My husband is romantically involved with your daughter.
It is a disaster for our marriage, and most certainly a disaster for your daughter as well.
(pause for reaction)
I am working on my marriage, as I try to end this affair.
If you can think of any ways you might influence your daughter to stop this disaster from advancing further, please know this, you have my support as well as my gratitude."

There probably isn't any way to tell the story without them coming across as 'trashy' so there's no need to add any details or flourishs. Just the facts and underline what you want - No Contact with her ever!
I think a move is a good idea. Personally I would tell WH that you intend to move away from this area. If he is interested in reconstructing your marriage he is welcome to join you but you won't be staying. Maybe this is IB but honestly in cases like this I feel it's justified. You need to set the bar high and if he's prepared to try to jump it, then your marriage has a chance. If not, then it will just die a slow, painful death.
Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.

No, moving isn't an IB...in a sitch like this it MUST be part of the R boundaries. No move, no R.
However, I would recommend only planting seeds at this point, offhandedly mentioning the idea of moving, saying positive things about getting a new start, etc.
Later there's plenty of time to make clear how very important - crucial - moving is.

Well I told her dad. Needless to say he is very upset. He kept saying how sorry he was. I told him my WH is to blame also for this mess. He was the grown up in this. Her dad is like what in the world were they thinking. Her dad would like to come to the house with her and discuss this mess. What do you guys think about this? I mean what else is there to talk about. They are going to deny it once again. See he doesn't know how much proof I actually have voicemail, letter, naked pics which he thought he erased from my email.(its on my Iphone)

Good for you!
I would tell her dad that there is nothing to discuss. The affair must end, and the only way it will end is for his daughter and your husband to have absolutely no contact, and that includes you no longer keeping her kids.

I agree with LC. Other than telling her dad that he has every right to confront his D(OW) and your WH, there is nothing more to discuss.
Did you ask him for his help?

They are going to deny it once again. See he doesn't know how much proof I actually have voicemail, letter, naked pics which he thought he erased from my email.(its on my Iphone) vivi, I would call him back and tell him about your evidence. He needs to know this. In addition, he should be told that others know about the affair by the OW's admission. I would ask him not to come over, that there is nothing more to discuss with HER., But tell him that the solution is for both families to cleanly cut off contact for life. Tell him you are going to be moving to keep them apart but ask him to watch for contact from his end and to call you if he sees any sign of contact. You did good, vivi!
