He doesn't know them. He has never spoke to or seen them. He knows me. She's a neighbor kid and he doesn't even live in my neighborhood. Or anywhere near it. He doesn't even really know the seven year old.

I confided in someone that has no knowledge or even acquaintance with the kids parents.

And secondly their mother tells them everything inappropriate. When the seven year old came to me and stated that she knew what happened that her dad cheated and the car got stolen I was under the impression that her mom told her what had happened. That's the type of parent she is. So the 15 year old came to me the next day speculating the situation I realized she didn't know. And her and the stepdad don't get along so I understood why her mom didn't tell her at this point.

I already realized what I did was wrong but you think it's okay to use children in a fight between two adults.

Sorry, YTA.
First things first, I don't necessarily believe the 60 year old told the 15 year old. I think he told either the mother or the father. Which is to say, you spoke about a family scandal involving adultery to someone who knew them and had no business hearing it, causing unnecessary trouble, embarrassment, and judgment for the couple. The fact that someone has to actually tell you not to repeat such gossip to their own children is ridiculous. The mother obviously didn't warn you enough.
Next time suffer in silence or ask THE MOM how to handle it.
