RelationshipHow to tell your children that you are divorcing your wife

Date:

Divorce has become common nowadays. Just like how you will find many couples getting attracted to each other and entering into a relationship, same way couples who are already married do not take much time to send each other divorce notices if any issue crops up in their married life. One of the major reasons for couples getting a separation is the rising mental health issues. 

SC refuses urgent hearing on plea for direction for uniform divorce procedure

Mental health issues are increasing among young and middle-aged people more than the earlier times. It is not that the older generation doesn’t suffer from mental health issues but their old values and beliefs of staying committed to their married partners till death arrives is what makes them remain in the marriage for so long. But that’s not the case with the married couples of this generation. 

Being married may actually help you live longer

People want things swiftly, so if a couple has no children even after staying married for four or five years, parents of such couples don’t mind seeing the couple getting separated because at the end of the day, they want their family to grow and nothing else. Same way, even if it is a love marriage, and children are also born, if couples don’t have mutual understanding and keep fighting with each other over petty issues, they don’t mind staying apart and sending divorce notices to each other.

So, in such times, divorces are becoming a trend not just in the tinsel town or rich people’s lives but even in common people who are not shying away from separating from each other despite the societal pressure. If you have children from your marriage and you both have made up your minds that no matter what, you both cannot continue the relationship, then you have to do a lot of emotional work on how to put things up in front of your children.

It is obvious that children won’t be happy when you break the news of your separation or divorce. Children want affection and love from both their parents always, not just when they are growing up. That’s how they see in movies, series, and even their friends in their schools or colleges. So, when you decide to break the marriage, it is obvious that you are also working towards breaking the emotions of a happy and fulfilling family of your children.

Dealing with a change doesn’t come easy. And now when you both as a couple have decided to part ways, it will become very difficult for children to accept the fact that they cannot live in the same household and choose either of their parents. Considering there is a court case wherein children would be asked of their choice to stay which of their parents, you don’t have to be quite formal and make things difficult for them by neglecting your spouse.

You can put things straight to them wherein you give them an example of how happy and peaceful life can happen if your children understand the importance of your separation and are free enough to live with either of you and not fall into the emotional traps. How you convince them before your divorce from your wife and their mother will be just the first step towards another journey of your life with your children.
