You must be very shocked that your husband hasn't been honest with you and I wouldn't blame you if you felt very let down by him.
I don't know how you found out about your husbands son, was it from someone else other than your husband?
Whatever the reasons he should have been open and honest with you. I feel sorry for both you and his little boy who obviously has been treated as a 'secret' by his father.
Honesty and trust are the backbone of any relationship. I think by now you'll have talked or argued about this with your husband and no-one can tell you what to do in a situation like this.
I think you have to be given time to think about the news and ask whether or not your husband is the man you thought you'd married. In many ways your relationship has been based on a lie or rather a huge omission on your husbands part. He might have thought he would loose you if he told you the truth but he now risks loosing you because he didn't.
If you really love him and want this to work then I think you have to forgive him and encourage him to be honest and truthful and a good father to his poor child who needs him too. It's a lot to ask you and I feel very sorry that you have had to deal with this.
