(1)It leads to preventing the pain and anguish the dying father would
have experienced from knowing the truth.
If 'prevent' is used instead of 'preventing'. is the sentence correct?
Thanks a lot for your help. |

No -- but even if "preventing" is used, the sentence is awkward. I would say "It helps prevent etc." |
