Do you fight infront of your kids?

Icertainly dont think that its good to fught in front of the children,but on the other hand they cannot be wrapped in cotton wool either.They have to become toughened up to cope with the trials that lifs can bring,but seeing their parents fight is not the anser to strengthen their characters.Im sure it can have a reverse affect on children and it can make them very insecure to see theri parents fighting and arguing.So maybe keep any very heated differences of opinions out of earshot of your offspring.

I did once two years ago and my kids were so scared and afraid and I swear not to do it again. So now usually when our kids are around we try not to yell, scream or insults each other but we will still had a liitle agruement though.

As a child, my parents would argue a lot in front of me, I hated it and it scared and upset me. I always vowed that I would never do the same to my children and apart from once or twice I have stuck to my word because I do not want them to feel how I did when I was a child.

I don't think it is good to fight in forn of your kids.. Neither is arguing.. I would try to avoid that ^^ Have a nice day..

No never we either make sure we are out of earshot before things get heated, but we rarely argue anyway, but I dont think it is good for kids to hear their parents arguing.

Nope we dont fight infront of our kids, we really make it a point to find time or wait for the arguments to come out like after the kids sleep or we go to a different room to discuss things. We do not want our kids to see us fighting for they may have the impression that it is normal to fight, we want them to grow up in a family where there is love, tenderness especially respect with each other.. :) and if they may see us fighting it may affect them negatively...

[i]Hi comfort, For me, it's not! I have no kids but if ever we will have, I will never allow that to happen..My Parents used to argue in front of us and that time we were mature already and we also join them in their discussions..LOL! We will give our views and after that, either Dad or Mom will realize that they are wrong and will approve the others opinion! It's fun and healthy... But,when it includes bad words and screaming, I am sure that will give a bad effect on the child![/i]

As much as possible, my husband and I try to not fight in front of our kids. Whenever we had an argument, we try to keep it to the both of us and not let the kids hear what we're talking about. It's not good for kids to see and hear what their parents are arguing about. Because when they grow up, they will adopt it. Keep myLotting. HUGZ!

I dont have a kid right now but hoping to become a parent after some time. But i am sure and i dont want to fight in frot my kids. Now we dont fight also. Kids characted will have big impression if they happen to see their parents fighting. this need to be avoided if possible.

I think it's not good to let your kids see that you are fighting. Because you will set as an example for them. at their young age, they will not forget these scenes, and will just remember you fighting an not loving each other. The tendency, they too will fight with their partners when they grow up..

I remember, when i was a kid, my parents tried thier best not to fight in front of us. So i follow that way since that i a mom now. Because when you fight in front of your kids, there's a tendency that they also learned to be into trouble when they get bigger and have thier own family. And it's not healthy for family when the parents shouting and screaming and yelling infront of kids they might follow that way too. ANd grow up without a good manners. Happy posting.

My husband & I agreed (even before our babies were born) that we would never fight in front of our kids. I don't think it's a very good example to be setting for them, especially if you yell at them for fighting with siblings. I also don't think it's something kids need to see. They need to see their mom & dad being loving & kind to one another.

from the given discussion .what i feel it may hurt the childrens behaviour and there is chance of losing affectionate towards all the family members. 2.they feel sorry for having such parents when seeing the parentswho are very friendly towards each other and ....what the parents most of them should do is they must be very affectionate towards themselves even if there is anything happened for them...........so particularly what i suggest is parents should not yell,screem and hurl infront of their children.one thing i can say among the children is the way they recieve may be different some may think in positive manner and some may think in negative way.......because they are too young to have a broad knowledge and they cant adjust with the situations ......even if the kids turning to teenagers or adults .family members should improve their social behaiour on how to cultivate.but should not .......feel them doen and even they tell to their frnds that the situation is like this in family and even they neglect parents decision ......... so lastly i conclude that [parents must be affectionate..........infront of their kids...

no i dont believe that its right to fight in front of your kids i am not saying that you do i am just saying that in genral that its not i dont fight in front of my son with his mother i keep all the fighting away from the kids cause that is very tramatic to a child to see his/her parents fighting it makes them want to rebel even more then they are already going to i think that fighting should be kept quiet and in a room were the kids are not at

I try not to but its not the first time that sometimes we exchange some nice words in front of our son.

We do have our arguments in front of the kids for sure. I am not one to sit and simmer for a convenient time to discuss something when the kids aren't around. Chances are I'd forget all about it by that time. However, I think the kids are learning that I compromise and he just shuts up about it - in my biased opinion, of course. You'd have to hear what he says about it - I'm sure it would be different.

I try not to argue in front of my kids, but sometimes it does happen. It is not a good habit to get into though. I think it just stresses the kids out needlessly.

Very rarely do we fight. When we do.. we will do it in front of the kids.. who are almost adults. Usually it's about stupid stuff with the underlying cause of money (or lack thereof). We usually get over the same day, because we understand why. The kids don't care.. they know its all over stupid stuff too. The smaller kids... they shouldn't have to witness it.. it scares them because they do not understand..

I think you should not actually fight in front of kids as ir leads to a wrong impact on them. When kids are small, it creates a wrong impression regarding a relationship which is so good. If they frequently watch this fights then they are also silently turning violent. I strictly beleive we should avoid such fights in front of children.
