[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just google yelling in homes impact on kids. The results aren’t pretty. [/quote]

When they are being yelled at. Yelling at a hard of hearing dad is different.[/quote]

Actually no. Parents yelling at each other has about the same harm as spanking. Anger and aggression in the home has a significant detrimental effect on kids.[/quote]

Better than getting divorced. Have you seen that effect on kids?  [/quote]

Witnessing and being victim of bullying in the home is far more detrimental than visiting two calm parents in separate living spaces.

The problem of course is that most parents are terrible at self assessment for all the reasons that would be so, and many are unwilling to admit how much of a bully they may be to partner and to kids.

Very few bully parents do it only to the spouse and are always kind and patient with the children. Beyond which, subjecting your children to witnessing the bullying of their parent is abuse in itself. A partner who abuses their children's parent cannot themselves claim to be a good parent - they are among the worst kind of parent there is, creating a 'home' filled with tension and heightened anxiety in which little developing brains and bodies stew, learning unhealthy coping mechanisms that will become their lifetime struggle to overcome.[/quote]

So the kids are screwed either way if the parents divorce. But now the kids get to roam back and forth between homes and maybe there will be additional financial stress on top of having bad parents. Divorce won’t make like better for kids. Which is why i said what i said.[/quote]
