No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

You staying with your dad, at least in your mom's eyes, is you choosing the new chick over her also.
And if thats what you want to do, so be it. But you're actively choosing another woman over your mother.
Think of it like this: Someone was caught doing x. X being any deplorable act you wanna fit in there. Let's say being racist to the point of violence.
Said member of that race who you've hung out with comes to you, tells you what happened, and asks you not continue hanging with said person or else they're going to deem you racist too.
Although you don't have any racist views, and although that person has never been racist to you since your not that "undesirable" race, you continuing the relationship puts you in the racist category.
You could stop the relationship although it hurts. And in doing so you may even help the person learn the errors of thier ways, or atleast the consequences of their actions.
Or you can say nothing and allow the racist tyrad to continue.
Edit: I also want to say I'm sorry your in this position. It sucks you have to make this decision. And although its hard now, I hope everything works out in your favor in the long run.
Truly am sorry
Edit edit: yall don't love your mom's and have her back and thats just sad. Boo me all you want, but if either of my parents was to cheat I'd side with the other until the cheater comes back and apologizes like their the adult their supposed to be.
Hold people to higher standards, especially the ones that are supposed to be raising you
You can turn this around as well. Their mom asking them to stop having contact with their father is her choosing to take away their father from them. If that's what she wants to do...
Children should not be pulled into the relationship problems of their parents. The parents are the ones who chose to have a child together, they are the ones who have to deal with the consequences of that.
I'm just trying to give the mothers perspective. I know nothing else about these people besides one is willing to throw away the love and trust of someone they're supposed to be closest with for their own selfish gain.
What caused that to happen I can't speak for.
And the dad is the one who bought those relationship problems to move in with his son.
The dad has 100% already pulled his son into this before the mother ever said anything.
