The mother shared details of the “disgusting” and sordid discovery on Reddit’s forum page, drawing thousands of comments in support. The unnamed 31-year-old woman had hired a 17-year-old babysitter to take care of her three-year-old daughter while she working full-time as a nurse. However, over four months, she started to have suspicions about her husband’s relationship with the babysitter.
Her 34-year-old husband worked nights and often slept during the day when the babysitter was around.
In a lengthy post on Reddit, she shared what happened next: “I have been having suspicions for almost four months.
“I felt I was going crazy because something was off.
“My husband refused to ease my mind and answer questions I had so I put a camera in the living room.
“I saw nothing until day four when he and the babysitter were making out on the couch behind my daughter’s back while she was watching TV.”

She said she felt “disgusted” that her husband would cheat on her with a young woman in the same room as their young child.
The mother continued: “I felt like my entire world came crashing to the ground.
“I felt all kinds of negative feelings including guilt even though I just wanted to keep my job when he complained about me pushing him to the side.”
She detailed how her husband burst into tears when confronted with the footage.
The post was shared on the r/TrueOffMyChest forum, which describes itself as “a place to get personal things off your chest” and garnered a lively response with over 6,400 comments
Most users urged her not to take her husband back, while others shamed him for taking advantage of a teenage girl exactly half his age.
One user, named as PeteyPorkchops, posted: “The babysitter seduced him? And poor old him just couldn’t resist, could he?
“He took advantage of a 17-year-old girl, made you feel like s*** for working full time vs his 3 days, and literally put the blame for it on a teenager in your employ.
“Do what’s best for YOU and your daughter, not a cheating piece of s***.”
Another user, wheniwakup, added: “I’d argue the cheating is far less problematic than a 34-year-old man taking advantage of a 17-year-old babysitter.”
