Totally!
Quote From: jlr409As a 20 year old who experienced an alcoholic father and an unfaithful, verbally abusive mother I would like to say that if your in a bad marriage and you subject your children to it, it will greatly affect them for the rest of their lives more than you know. Images of them fighting and screaming still haunt me everyday. It confuses children and really confuses them. My parents never did divorce but in my case they should have. Don't put your children in the middle! It's a horrible feeling and it never goes away.... : ( I so agree! People if your in a relationship and there is abuse in anyway, don't put your children at risk.. Like I heard Dr.Phil say..."if you won't protect your children he will" I know that isn't exactly what he said. The point is still there. Watching your mom or dad being abused or abusing wether it is alchol, drugs, domestic violence or all of the above... all has a huge effect on the children and doesn't go without consequences. Unfortunatly the children are the ones who suffer those consequences. Were I live if a woman is in an abusive relationship the child services get involved and give the woman a choice, leave with your children or stay and have your children taken by the government. I know this is only for the best intrest for the children.
