RATIONAL ANSWERS TO EMOTIONAL DECISIONS: (Minnesota Judge) : If you are both parents, your children are one half of each of you. This is an important fact to remember because when you tell your child how much of a “loser” his or her other parent is, or how “stupid” they are or what a bad person they are, you are essentially telling them that half of them is bad too. To do that to a child is unacceptable and unforgivable. What happened between you and your spouse in your marriage is not your child’s fault and your child should never be a way for you to get back at your ex for the bad things he or she did. Doing that to your children can tear them apart emotionally and can ultimately ruin the relationship they have with both parents. That is no way to raise a child to be a happy, healthy, and successful human being. By thinking more about your children than yourselves, you can make sure your children do not pay for your mistakes and that they have a fulfilling and positive childhood, with both parents. When you have children, divorce becomes much more complicated, but that doesn’t mean your children have to suffer as a result. By putting your children’s best interests first, you can ensure that they will be able to adjust more quickly while maintaining a healthy relationship with both parents.
