Should a couple stay together?

I think the parents should try their best to keep a good relation for the child's sake. Of course, love between the couple can not last forever. Each should create a friendly atmosphere to enhance their love. The kid will be hurt if the parents separate. So, try to mend first. Ask him to think about your children. I think he loves them too. With the same purpose, nothing will be beyond your reach.

If the couple cannot work it out then then need to split up,not stay together for the kids.The kids witness all the argueing and in some cases beatings.The child grows up with an outlook of thinking that it's the way marriage is.That is not good.

Absolutely NOT...In fact I think that is the WORST thing to do since its far more damaging then seperating and being civil with one another...My ex tried to pull htat on me a couple times and I just wasnt having it.

there are several reasons which will effect our children but it is really difficult to decide the couple situation as they only can understand better to know whether they are comfortable with eachother or not. some of the couples really feel difficult to stay with eachother and the environment effects children very badly but when the couple is separated then too the childrens are effected as they are not going to stay only at home as they need to go out also for their schooling and all and when they see their friends parents together and they coming and picking them up and this will surely make them feel alone and uncomfortable if their friends comment something and this will surely effect them. so for childrens sake if is good the couple compromise and stay together and i know it is going to be difficult for the couple.

i posted the same question by the way a week ago......Me?i don't think they should...why on earth would it be better for the kids?would the kids be better with two divorced understanding parents?or would they be better in an atmosphere of fights and hatred and misunderstanding all the time?...trust me,soemtimes it is even better for the kids?

I understand what you mean... sometimes it is better for the parents to be apart and have a good loving relationship with both parents... that way there wont be any ugliness in a delayed divorce with lots of hurt and hard feelings towards the other... If the couple tried marriage counseling and tried several times to work it out... and to no avail... then kids would be the next worry... Are the kids getting affected... are the kids brought into the argument at times... do the kids overhear a lot of the arguments..?? those are all a lot of questions one must ask before making such a big decision.

i think parents should try to mend the relationship for the kids but like you say when a couple does not want to be together it creates tension. children always pick up on this and your right they are affected. it not for for the children to be put through this and if a child sees people arguing all of the time they will grow up thinking thats how things should be. i think it is better in the long run for a couple to split if its not working as it is worse for the children than them getting a divorce. happy mylotting
