       Nor should a person trust a spouse so much that they would not
feel suspicious about very strange behavior. The father was doing some
rather odd things as you pointed out in the rest of your reply to
Keith and even people who are normally very trusting and not all that
inquisitive would have noticed. It boggles the mind that the wife was
not suspicious of three grandkids produced without explanation. It is
completely implausible.
