The purpose of this study was to understand what, if any, messages adult children recalled receiving from family members following the discovery of their parents' infidelity that either discouraged or encouraged feeling caught. Thirty-eight individuals were interviewed. Findings suggested that adult children received messages about parental conflict being between their parents, no one being the good/bad guy, and speaking favorably about change, all of which discouraged feeling caught. Messages that encouraged feeling caught involved urging the child to uncover information, serve as a mediator, and field other family members' opinions. These findings are compared to previous research.
