If the aggrieved partner cannot accept the child as their own, they should dissolve the relationship.

Whether they choose to do so or not is solely up to them, but the child is the real innocent and deserves no ill effects from their birth.

@Mamapolo2016 I do agree with that. The child certainly doesn’t deserve any resentment from the partner who was cheated on; it didn’t ask to be conceived or born. I was amused that the question was asked on the basis of [b]morality[/b]. Cheating was the immoral thing to do.
