Would you want a person with their faith broken and shattered as a role model for your children?

We are not talking about someone making a mistake and recognizing wrong, but someone who refuses to turn to Jesus and humility.
 
I’m not picking out a “role model” from a catalog. We have family and “non DNA” family/friends. Some of them sin, some of them are saints. We love them all. My kid grew up knowing there was never a sin that would earn someone being “put out of the family”.
 
We have a responsibility to help form our children’s faith and morals.

Would you allow kids to sleep at grandma’s house, who is sleeping with someone who is not her husband?

We can tell our children who is behaving Christian, and who is not.
 
Scripture says there are sins which put someone out of the family.it is their own self condemnation.

I was not given the gift of reading souls, so, I am forced to simply accept people.

For the what if’s, well, I my child is a grown man. He is the most loving and kind person I have ever known, so, I did something right. Yes, he visited people who were living in irregular situations, visits of all sorts. People in irregular situations also visited us.
 
Open adulterous relationships do not require reading someone’s soul. It is evident.
 
Who said we should not “visit” anyone in “irregular relationships”?

You have to first demonstrate that you understand what we are saying, then agree with or refute what is being proposed.

I said lines should be drawn. Those lines will be guided by the Holy Spirit.

We usually get together for Sunday dinners at my Moms but I’m starting to feel like I should avoid her house until the adultry stops.
The original poster defined visit as “get together for Sunday dinners”.

While people have gone down all sorts of rabbit trails, we define the visit as the author did.
 
And you think that is unjustified?

An adult “visiting” people who are known sinners is not a problem. Unless it’s giving a “nod” or approval or aiding or participating with the sin.

A parent deciding to restrict the relations between anyone who is embracing grave sin and their child, is responsible.

So everyone should post their marriage license on their doorpost, have proof that they’ve been to confession, Sorry, but in my opinion, some of these responses border on the ridiculous. I never even wondered if my grandparents were married.
 
I was trying to read all the comments and their is some good feedback in their that I need to discern.

A couple things to clarify.

A) My kids range from 1-12 years old.

B) Its obvious they are playing house and my kids know this. The boyfriend told my kids that he was moving in because he didn’t want the kids touching his stuff.

So are you saying you assumed they were?

Are you saying it’s ok for our kids to assume an adultery is a Christian Marriage?

Ok. I asked because some were using your relationship with him to discredit an intention to restrict your children’s relationship with their grandmother.

Thanks for clearing that for them.

I’m saying kids (at a certain age) don’t think about whether or not people are married - and yes, my grandparents were married, we just don’t know when (anniversary date). Not all areas of the world keep records.

It will become obvious (or at least obvious that the relationship is adulterous since the OP’s father is alive and in the picture)

Grandpa John is Daddy’s Daddy and Grandma Jane is his Mom.
Grandpa Jack is Mommy’s Daddy and Grandma Jill is her Mom, but Grandpa Jack lives with Grandma Lucy and Grandma Jill lives with Grandpa Bob.

And their family tree will look like the trees of most of their friends. Kids learn that not every person is perfect, that people make mistakes, commit sins and we still love em!

Heck, my son is a well grown man and HE was a freak in school because he had one set of parents, only two sets of grandparents and even his great grandparents were all together until death.
 
You miss the whole point of repenting of sin!

When we don’t turn away, and confess sin, we embrace sin, and call it right!

To call an adulterous relationship good and holy is a terrible thing. I’m not sure you appreciate this.
