No,Children should not be subjected to you arguments.Take it to your room,send them to there's.Children are like sponges,they pick up every little thing you do and mimics them.Before you know it they will be saying and doing the same things you too do when you argue.They also will use the same words you use.Then you'll get mad at them for it,but you too will be the ones who taught it to them.Think about that the next time you decide to argue in front of them.Being genuinely nice to each other and your children will help your relationship and teach your be nice to each other and to you.

Depending on the issue(s) at hand, the level on the Volume Control, etc. But I do not feel children need to hear what grown ups are arguing about, there is a time and place, and if not, try to resolve your matters of the heart at an appropriate area/when the children are out of ears reach.

Children do have to learn that conflict is part of every relationship, even healthy and loving relationships. As long as parents can remain calm and rational, arguing in front of children is okay. If as parents you never argue in front of your children, they will have a gross misconception of the reality of marriage, and are unlikely to form healthy relationships as they grow older.
That said, I am slowly learning to stay calm during arguments with my husband, and he is slowly learning not to use language that we don't want our children to hear. After eleven years of marriage, it's still a challenge but we have a healthy marriage and our children understand that we respect each other's opinions.

It's ok to disagree as long as your voices are not raised and you dont have a angry expression on your face, I don't think it is ever good to express anger between parents in front of children. They learn the behavior instantly

arguing and disagreements are all apart of life and kids see it. However if you are being civil not yelling cursing things like that most likely the kids won't even pay attention. Parents who argue around their kids are human and in many cases they hide it and then when they end up divorcing the kids are floored because MOM and Dad never fought.

Discussion during a disagreement is ok, it's a normal, healthy part of life and should be taught. Compromise should also be taught.
Argueing and losing your temper should be limited, or completely hidden from the kids if at all possible.

How did you feel when your parents argued in front of you? Did you feel safe and secure? Did you like watching mom and dad yell at each other? That's how your kid will see it, too.

I don't think it's right. I think it scares them to see parents fighting. Then again if you can argue in a civilized manner kids can learn how to reslove conflict. I guess it all depends on your arguing style.

No children pick up on stuff so fast and you don't know but it stays in their mind even teenagers can sense something wrong so not a good idea and when you think they are not paying attention ...They Are.!!!

Is it okay to have a disagreement and discuss it like two adults so your children understand how to maturely handle a situation like that? Yes.
Should you get into a screaming match and call each other nasty names? Definitely not.
