Children and Divorce Blog

Yes, Love, Understanding and Patience is a must to survive being part of a divorced family. My parents aren’t divorced in legal terms but they separately broke apart for good several yrs. ago. Divorce wasn’t allowed here in our country. It’s really hard to cope at a your younger age, your innocent days and your emotional implication, but yet struggling those times to forget and til times gone by slowly by slowly my scars went healed by time.

My mother gave all the support i need, while my father left us and went gone to someone else, my mother really did bear all those pain in vain, it took many yrs for her to accept and understands. It is had to cope when divorce happens in your family when you are young.

The time goes by slowly and so does the recovery, yet the scars still remains on my mother’s heart. My mother provides me with everything I needed emotionally and supported us even when we encountered countless troubles. That’s why its really not easy to cope up everything when the family mislead into trouble, specially the children could be the main victim of those circumstances, its all about pain, fear, revenge, despair and loosing of love, if the child could not be guided.

Parents need to think more than a thousand times before they will do such anguish things and selfishness act for their child’s future. It’s really not easy to live life without your love ones to guide you specially our parents that teaches us the essence of moral values and molding us to be human by faith.

Children can be affected by the divorce of their parents, but if the parents make an effort to keep the disruption on the child’s life to a minimum, it doesn’t need to affect them too much. It certainly helps if the two parents can be ammicable about it all, especially in front of the child.

There are so many children’s lives ruined by impetuos parents that marry and just as quickly divorce. So many couples should simply not have kids. I have seen 18 year olds with kids, I even ran across a 17 year old with a child. What were they thinking ? Poor kids, they had no choice in the matter.

I have a son who I love and adore completely. He is a polite, well behaved child who is happy and well adjusted. Unfortunatly his father has begun to drink more and more heavily with frequent ‘blackouts’ and injuring himself as he is too drunk to look after himself properly.

My son’s father refuses help. I’ve left.
This was done not because I am irresponsible, but because I AM responsible. My son will not see his father’s behaviour and think it is normal, I will not allow it.

Dont dare to lecture to me, a newly single parent, with your narrow judgements on the world as there are stories behind every statistic and believe me when i tell you this is not the way i imagined things would happen but feel strongly that there was no other, viable, choice in the matter.

I will continue to give my child the best i can, always.

It’s unfortunate that very often parents who are divorcing focus on the division of property over best interest of their children.

Marriages are made in heaven but celebrated on earth. But sometimes these celebrations turn sour because of several reasons and take the form of divorce, thus parting the souls which were meant to stay together. The pain through which the divorced people pass though cannot be expressed in words.

It is too common with divorce cases these days. We can say almost 2/3 of all marriages end up in divorce. Things can get even worse with children around. Luckily, I’m not the one as my parents are married for more than 30 years now. I hope I will do the same too.

A man who divorces his wife must be adult and sane, but if a boy of ten years of age divorces his wife, precaution must be exercised. Similarly, a man should divorce of his own free will, therefore, if someone compels him to divorce his wife, that divorce will be void. It is also necessary that a man seriously intends to divorce; therefore, if he pronounces the formula of divorce jokingly, the divorce will not be valid.

I have never had to deal with divorce first hand but I have seen the pain it leaves in the lives of several of my friends and the relief that can come to the children if they partents are civilized and fair

James, I agree. Unhappy family is no way to raise kids.

It is difficult for the parents to look at the problems of their children when they themselves are going through a bleak period. However, parents should try to get help and be strong in realizing that the problems of children require crucial attention. The love and caring of both parents are essential for a healthy growth of a child. It is important for both the parents to work things for the benefit of their children.

My parents divorced, I would say it effected me and to some degree still does – I am 28 now. The main point that sticks with me is the difference between my two parents. My mother has got on with her life and never complains, my dad will take any opportunity to run my mother down – he always has done ever since I was a child.

I think the key is for the parent to focus on the child and not their own life, however some people are too wrapped up in themselves to do this.

My parents had their divorce when I am 10 years old. It really affects me a lot. I became the top student in class but as I noticed no one is supervising me cause my parents are apart and so many things to face aside from us, their children, I meet other people and loved them much more than my parents. I didn’t want to stay at home. I love being with my friends than being with my family that really get me out of school.
