a decesion to make

I understand that the parents may think that they are doung the right thing by staying together, but their unhappy feelings will show through the pretence and the children may suffer from being a part of an unhappy family. It is a very noble thing to want to stay together for the sake of their kids, but it's not the right thing to do.

if a couple can't work things out between them i guess the children will suffer whether or not they stay together. they need to tell their children of the situation and how they tend to deal with it. top priority should be the children. when you became a parent, sometimes you just need to be selfless and tend to your children and partner more. you can't be selfish just by thinking about yourself. its hard to not have a whole family.

Kids is secondary. First as a husband and wife, they have make a understanding. Misunderstandings happen between couples, but learning to stay in relation, with adjusting and understanding, moreover loving each other truly is important. Then only they can grow up their kid, loving and understanding the kid better in future

I would stay together as a family (and keep the fighting, etc. minimal) until the children are about the age of 18 -- out of the house and on their own. If the Dad wants to see his kids (the Mom will probably get custody), then I say hang in there.

In my opinion they should fix the problem first rather then splitting up and the children will be more affected on this case so I think if that any situation happens to a couple they should talk about the problem and not to start any fire what I mean is not to stat a big fight just because of simple things. If they want to separate they should still support the children and still be with the children even they don't stay in one house.

Honestly, i think if the couple is staying together but they aren't happy or they're arguing a lot or there's tension between the two, it wont do much to help the kid grow or get an idea of what it's like to be a family. I'm not saying i approve or dissaprove of this, but a lot more couples seem to be getting divorced after having kids, and then remarrying, and the kids are perfectly fine with it... I guess it's almost like a new type of family, even if it may seem slightly broken, it's better than having an unreal marriage. Sorry if i come off a bit harsh. This isn't actually all my opinion, it's just a possible thought.

There will be a very bad impact upon the child if he begins his life without having parents.A marriage is a bond that two people make to stay together in all circumstance they are going to face through their life.

This situaton is happening fast today,even after so much time of marriage,couple reach to this level,instead both should be more and more close,I think for the sake of kids adjustment should be made,both should listen to each other and sort out the solution,kids willbe more happy and close if they know that for them,Mummy papa are adjusting,melance should be out,humbelness and love should take the charge.What do you say?

Love,Friendship, Responsibility,Understanding,Compromising and Adjustment all constitutes a marriage and if all these things are perfect in a married life they are happy.The couple after passing a happily married life they wants separation after having their children that will affect their own children only and their children shows their sign of love.They were happy before so they can solve there problem by own remembering their past memories.
