divorce is just like the nightmare of marriage. But when it must be happened, we should manage our children. The children from divorced family is not always broken. There are so many from the divorced family get their successful. I think it depends on how the parents or the environment of they live. What's your opinion about this

My parents got married in 1964 and my sister was born in 1967. I was born in 1972. They got divorced in 1983. I was aged 10 to 11 years old and my sister was aged 15 to 16 years old. I got married in 1994 and had my oldest son born in 1995. I got divorced in 2000. So my marriage lasted just six years. My ex-husband is an Australian man. I am English. I am not keen to marry ever again. My sister got married in 1996 and they are still happily married. They have four children.

I agree with you. It depends on a lot of factors. Divorce is hard on children but it doesn't mean that they have to be destroyed by it. They can learn many things as they try and adjust to their new life. Just as the parents do.

Thanks for your response. That's right that divorce is hard on children. It also happened to me,to my children. Poor they are, actually I always cry when I remember my sons faraway from me. Firstly, they were sad, frustrated, desperate. But I can see that they are now to be independent children. They get good achievement at their school. They can handle many kinds of problems.

Not all of the childeren will be broken except some.It depends on the love they continue to get from the divoced father and the dovorced mother.if you still give them selfish love to them just like before the divorce,i think the children will be suceessful just as the children form the nondivoced family.

Right, the children shouldn't be hurt, they have right to be happy. They have right to live normally as an ordinary family. I agree with you that the parents should give them love.Let you and your husband or wife separate, but still give your children right to have love,let them freely to see their papa or mama every time they need. Give them love,give them the right to get sufficient education

Always true because for kids the mom and dad are also the exactly image they'll have of man and woman for the rest of their lives and their parents show by example if someone can find the right person and be happily married or not.

I agree with you. If the parent is good and give their utter most affection to their kid and guide them in a good way. They will achieve a lot in their life. Parent's divorce don't affect the kid if s/he is strong and confident.
