There are instances when couples divorce, they are so focused on their separation and issues they forget that they have children who are also affected by the break up of their family.
I think the negative effect on the emotional and psychological aspects of the children could be minimized if the parents are still civil and they are still a team as far as their children are concerned. Divorce parents must exert double efforts in providing a semblance of stability. That even if the kids divide their time between the parents who now live separately, they must feel they still have a family to come home to.
If the parents are no longer talking or if one lives away, the parent living with the children can still provide the children the emotional and psychological support. As long as the parent remains committed to give the children the love, attention and support, children of divorced parents must not suffer confusion, depression, emotional imbalance and feeling of lost.
It’s every parent’s responsibility to provide their children a “home”. Not the structure, but the love and stability. When they are tired and weary, there must be a place where they can run to, a parent’s warm embrace.
There will be many changes in our children’s life.
One must remain constant— FAMILY. .
bottom line: whatever God has put together, let no man put asunder
There will be many changes in the children’s lives when their parents are divorced and/or separated…
but only these things must remain CONSTANT :
FAITH IN GOD, LOVE and RESPECT for both parents and children, and FAMILY..
Have a Blessed weekend, Ms Annie.. ❤❤❤
