I envy those people who have a happy and complete family :(Sad to say I am one who had a broken family. I am only 5 years old when my mother and father decided to leave each other. My mother went abroad to work and sustain our needs. They broke up because my father is hurting my mother. And my father is always drinking liqour, he became irresponsible. It is hard to have a broken family, I am insecure and I feel disconnected with others. I wish I can bring them back together. When my mother had her vacation here in the Philippines they talked and they been together again. But my father become worst, he still drink alcohol. So my mother decided again to work abroad. I guess they are not compatible together. So even if it is hard to us we have just accept the truth that we will ba forever a BROKEN FAMILY. But what ever happens I love them so much. :(

Sad to know that. I've never seen my father since I was 2 years old. The longest time I spent with my mom is only 2 years. Though I envy others who have a complete family, I still believe things happened for a reason. The past won't matter anymore. Just do the best you can for your future. You cannot turn back the time, but I know you still have the future to be a better mom to your child.

I know lots of people who came from a broken family as well. Yes, they are dreaming of a complete family but they would say that they rather have a broken family where their mother and father living happy separately that to have their mother and father living together but almost killing each other. Who would want to see their parents fighting everyday right?

I'm so sorry hunny, but all I can say is try not to be negative, being in a broken family doesn't make you a different human being! please remember that. There are things in life, that we don't really want to happen, of course it's hard to understand, instead of making it distract you, let it be your inspiration, or let it be an example of those things, you don't want to do on your future.

it's really sad and hard to be a broken family. i grew up with a complete family but my daughter now is of a broken family, me and her father separated when she was only a 1-month-old infant and i feel sad for my daughter because she grew up with no father around and also a family. it is a very sad decision for me but i believe it was for the better because as sad as it is, it is is really hard to be with the father of my daughter because of his mental health, he has the tendency to do crazy and bad things so it must everything must come to an end..i feel for people who are in this kind of situation.

I am sorry to hear the unfortune story about you.And i can understand your current mood.I grew up in the parent's quarrel sound which i have used to it.I know they will stretch out the peace hand to each other after quarrelling.But alas,my mom said to my dad ,she had fell in love with another man.My dad cried many times,my mom still chose to divorce with my dad.I subcribe to your view that even if it hard to us we have just accept the truth that we will be forver a broken family,but what ever happens i love them so much.May great wishes for our our parents. .
