The adult children have nothing to do with the personal life of a father, except seeking a share in an ancestral property through the partition.  If the mother is willing the adult children can take care of the mother who is in distress and may complain to the employer or police as second marriage is illegal and void.

It is the first wife who can take legal action against her husband for marrying another woman without getting divorce from her.Adult children can not take any legal action .

Mr.prasad .marrying another women illegally amounts to womanising ..it can not be termed as mans personal life.

The father has committed the offence of bigamy which is punishable under the IPC. The wife can file a criminal case against her husband under the code.
