It’s not my marriage and I don’t care.

Today Tiger Woods held a press conference to beg paparazzi to leave his family alone and apologize to the public for his infidelity. I’ve heard people say his apology didn’t seem sincere enough and they still don’t forgive him. To those people I say – “It’s not my marriage and I don’t care.”

Does it truly affect you in any way that he cheated repeatedly on his wife? Are you his wife, child, or mistress? No, you are not so for what does he need your forgiveness? People claim because he is a public figure and people, both young and old, looked to him as a role model he needs to find forgiveness and be punished by the public. No, he needs to find forgiveness and be reprimanded by his family.

If someone chooses to be unfaithful to their significant other because “Tiger Woods did it” I say the odds are pretty good that person wasn’t very faithful to begin with. If a child looks to him and thinks they should grow up to cheat in a relationship, then odds are that child’s parent hasn’t done a very good job.

We are all responsible for our own actions. He may have taught his kids to be a little less trustworthy in a relationship, but it’s up to the rest of us to teach our own kids morals and kindness in relationships.
