Divorce is Never Good For Kids
Posted: May 1, 2008Source: Dr Bill Maier
As a psychologist, I have counselled a lot of divorced parents and it is amazing how many say they broke up for the sake of their kids.
The fact is, unless there is emotional or physical abuse involved, kids are always better off when parents stay together.
Mums and Dads may think they are doing their kids a favour when they break up. But if they truly care about their children, they would get counselling and learn hoe to work their problems out.
Studies have clearly shown how difficult divorce can be on kids. Many grow up angry and have trouble getting along with their peers.
They often enter adulthood with self-esteem issues, and may have difficulty establishing healthy relationships. And when they marry, their risk of divorce is much greater than kids from intact homes.
If you are considering divorce, do not fool yourself inton thinking that you are doing it for the kids. Get Help now before it is too late.
