TestGood secret? Bad secret? Story 5
Nina’ father goes shopping with her. He asks her to wait for a moment on the corner, saying he’ll be right back. She sees him going up to a car. A woman gets out and kisses her father. She whispers something in his ear and he laughs. When he comes back to Nina, he says threateningly: ‘Don’t say a word to your mother!’
Good secret? Bad secret?
- Nina should be proud that her father has entrusted her with a secret.
- It’s one thing for her father to cheat on her mother, that’s their affair, but it’s wrong to involve Nina.

When partners are unfaithful and have sexual relations with others, this is not a form of domestic violence. It’s up to the father whether he cheats on his wife. But to involve Nina and forbid her from saying anything is another matter. Adults should not involve children in the conflicts with their partners and make them accomplices to secrets. If you become privy to a bad secret, you should talk to someone about it.
