Children Pay the Dues in Divorce




www.caseboss.com 
It’s so difficult to realize that children suffer during and after divorce, because one or both parties couldn’t control their emotions. Your children love their grandparents, uncles and aunts! Children need their families and shame on you if you’re using the children as pawns in your divorce.  It makes children feel sad when ones they love so much are name calling, back biting, yelling and screaming at each other. 

Your children will always remember and thank you, if both parents can sit down and tell them they love them and it’s not their fault that daddy and mommy are getting a divorce.  Do what is best for the children always place their welfare ahead of 2 angry adults that just can’t wait to gouge and punish each other with spiteful accusations. 

Parents so often get wrapped up in their selfish little worlds that they will do anything to prove a point or punish the other person.  The little ones are the ones who suffer and pay the dues for a disastrous divorce.  
It’s a good rule of thumb if contemplating divorce to keep your divorce between the two parting ways.   

Don’t share your dirty laundry with friends, family or neighbors because one day it will come back to haunt you.In a moment of weakness you decide to hurt your soon to be ex - spouse by posting a wild party on Facebook you just attended or an extended vacation with boyfriend or girlfriend. 

Run from the social media during divorce proceedings - attorneys are pros at tracking down your most   recent new relationships or activities and it may affect the family law judge’s decisions.  After-all if you’re out enjoying a so called single life before the divorce is over, are you really a parent who should have custody of the children? 

 Here I go again, catch myself stating this one more time – a family law judge’s priority is the children & he or she will make decisions which are in the “best interest” of the children.
  
In closing, if you take off your rose colored glasses when contemplating divorce and think about the children first, everything else seems secondary.  

Your decisions will amaze you as the children are now your priority and paying back your soon to be ex isn’t nearly as important as it was two weeks ago. You become centered on the kids their future, education, sharing custody if possible etc... 

As Always,
Little Tboca
