Good day, amazing people of Hive Blockchain. Welcome back to my blog. It is another edition in the #hivelearners community. I am so delighted to participate in this week's prompt divorce.
We have this belief that marriage is for better or for worse. Most times you suffer in silence, all in the name of marriage, afraid of people's judgement. That is why people stay in a marriage that is killing them slowly; so many people have lost their lives in such a marriage. Nobody prays to have a broken home, but there are some things you will see in marriage divorces. Our partner becomes the only option to free yourself. Divorce can really be heartbreaking because of its effects on the parent involved and the children.
Looking at the world today, there are so many broken homes. I have been asking myself, Why are there so many broken homes? What could really be the cause of this? From my research, I found out that lack of trust, infidelity, financial issues, etc., are the major causes of broken homes. one that is certain it traumatised and affected the emotions of both partners.
The mental well-being of the parent matters because when a parent is unstable, it will affect the training of the kids. The parent will not care for the kids; they are so depressed and emotional. No child will be happy seeing their parents crying all the time. In one way or the other, it will really affect the child. In most cases, it affects the child's education; their performance will be very low they will be isolating themselves from friends in school.
During my service year, I had this student who was so vibrant in class, but as time went on, I noticed that she isolated herself from her friends. Her performance in class work was poor. I needed to know what the problem Each time I asked her what the problem she always shed tears. Then I realised there was something wrong. One day I decided to take her home after school. Getting home, her dad was beating the mom, all thanks to me, who saved the mom that day. Such a child who always witnesses that from the parent is often dramatised, depressed, and scared; in most cases, they isolate themselves from their peer group.
As much as we have the interest of our kids, we should not stay in a toxic relationship. Those children you are treating to protect will also survive when you are gone. When you are in an abusive marriage, zero your mind of what people will say and walk out for me. Such a parent is brave; they don’t want their child to grow up in each environment.
A child needs both parents' support in their life. When both parents are stable, the child will function well; such a child will be healthy and happy. Check out kids who are training in abusive homes; they are unhealthy.
For me, both should be prioritised: both the parent's well-being and the child's well-being are very important. Parents have emotions, likewise the children. When a parent is mentally stable, such a parent will be able to take care of the child even after they have gone their separate ways.
Both parents should have access to their kids even as they have gone their separate ways. Please, if you are in a toxic relationship, quiet divorce is not a failure but a survival. Both parents' and children's well-being should be considered.
