Think Twice Before You Want To Complicate Your Separation Process Written on November 19, 2009, by Marshall Rogers.

Usually in gang wars and other fights it is only the people involved in it that get hurt or injured. But in some disputes like divorce, innocent and in some cases mute spectators have to bear the brunt. Whom are we talking about here? Did someone say, ‘children’? Yes. It is children that we are talking about here.

Divorce is the separation of two hearts that are no more in love. Children had no role whatsoever in making their parents fall in love with one another. But when they decide to break up it is the children who are also badly affected. This has been the case in many a Canadian divorce and it has to be changed.

I recently read an article in Times Online, which said that one-third of children lose touch with their parents after divorce. Isn’t this bad? To be frank, a person has equal rights in bringing up his children as his/her spouse. Was the parent in custody of the child the only one responsible for the conception of the children? This alone is enough to conclude that children have the right to spend equal time with both the parents if they (the parents) are divorced.

Many child welfare organizations, psychologists and doctors have been voicing their opinions strongly that a child can excel in life only with the support of both the parents. But still there are people who deny their spouses the opportunity of meeting with their children. It is not asked of them to provide complete custody, but giving them the chance to meet at periodic intervals would for sure boost the morale of the children as well as the ex-spouse and make them feel happy.

In a study conducted by family lawyers at Mischon de Reya, it was found that the prime motive of one in five parents during divorce was to make the separation as unpleasant as possible to their spouses. As a result of this, one in three children felt isolated whereas one in five thought they were ‘used’ by their parent. I’ve seen in some movies where the custodian of the child vents out his/her anger towards the other spouse by physically abusing the innocent child. It does not happen only in movies but also in real. When will people learn to be sensible?

Children deserve the love of both the parents. Separating them from the other parent under the name of divorce is not really good or sensible. With the rate of Canadian divorce going up, it is only natural to expect people to think for the welfare of their children and act accordingly.
