I do not want my kids to hear things about their mother....
By all means, act ethically. Keep your kids in the loop in an age-appropriate way.
But you do no and cannot control what your children will hear.

You don't have to like your boundaries. You just have to set and enforce them.

If I may ask. I have always been led to believe that French people have a casual attitude towards extramarital affairs. Italy and France. What do I have wrong?
Buy in any case, betrayal is betrayal. No one deserves it. I personally have no problems with moving on. Life is about growth. I will prefer growth over comfort any time. But never betrayal. Betrayal is never necessary.

Well, I asked ChatGPT to look online. Indeed, it says that 84% of Americans consider cheating morally unacceptable, compared to 48% of French people. It also states that 20% of Americans report having cheated, versus 33% of French people.
It adds that these numbers should be interpreted with caution.
However, I would say that many French people might consider a one-time affair not entirely unacceptable, but they would not accept maintaining a parallel relationship for months.

I am Italian and no, is not casual.
In the past in some places you could be forgiven murder for betrayal, so I doubt that even if not as extreme, is casual

Did you expose the OM widely, that is to everyone in his life,
He needs to be removed from the school.
Did you at least spit in his face?

Absolutely.
HE can keep your wife, she does not deserve that title by the way, she deserve "this OM concubine" at best.
But he should stay away from your kids, they are innocent
