Re: My dads secret other marriage and years of fighting with it
I don’t think you need to defend yourself here.
Men will always support polygamy. It feels manly to them. But its rare to see a man do justice to two different homes. He almost always fails at this. That is how it is…however sad it might be.
My suggestion is…please keep a very formal relationship as this is not the time to question anything. Its like in-laws…you get too close and too chummy there will almost always be issues. Its your father’s second family and his job to make their place in the family. He didn’t do justice and by default only presented your mom and you as his children to his extended family. So that’s what they’re used to. I am sure you’ve already made peace with it but you don’t actually have to do anything else.
