WHY are some parents like “ooo we hate each other but we’re staying together for the kids” no no NO you’re fucking fighting and screaming at each other every day you’re traumatizing that fucking kid and making it worse
people don't realize how much kids pay attention. sure, your six year old isn't going to understand the complexities of your marriage but they sure as heck can sense their parents dynamic and emotions to an extent.
so staying together for a kid is not a good idea. stay together for yourselves or because you still want to try, but don't subject that child to the agonies of your broken marriage. one day that kid is going to be a grown up and they are going to have a hard time forgiving themselves for that.
Yep yep yep. My parents started fighting when I was about 4, called it quits by the time I was 6 because I was at the point where I had heard so much arguing that I needed therapy. Also child therapists can all suck a dick
