is there any ways will the parents need to do, for the sake of the children so that every child is not affected when both parents decided to separate? Is there a big effect to the mental condition of the children?

Every child takes divorce a different way .. some even take responsibility for their parents divorce as well - even that that is never the case. I think when parents do divorce that they always keep the child's best well being to heart and a priority. Its important for both parents to be positive about the other parent, to be supportive when it comes to communicating about the child and simply make sure that they child knows that they are so loved. If a child is showing signs .. family counseling or individual counseling is great to. Its also good to let the child's teacher know that they just went through a divorce .. and as well as the schools counselor.

There will be an effect regardless of what you do. Your best bet is do not fight in front of the children and keep in civil. Do not degrade your ex in front of the children and do not allow anyone else to. At least this way it won't be tense and hostile. Both parents need to make the extra effort to spend more time with the kids until they adjust. Your first priority should always be the kids. I'll warn you. It won't be easy for them. They may act out, but just explain to them that your love for them has not changed at all. This is a very difficult situation for everyone, so good luck!! And be strong.

Yes there can be a big effect on the mental condition of children when they see that their parents are going to separate.The only thing children want is their parents's love and want to live with their them-both mummy and daddy.

There could be effects on the children the best way to handle it is for both parents to sit down with the children and explain that mom and dad are separating etc. but reaffirm how it was nothing to do with them and that they still love them etc. very much.

there is always a effect w/ children and most think there fault some how you really need to sit down and talk to them unless they are too young but kids surprise ya every day and are smarter than ya think some kids can be traumatized but if ya are sival w/ eachother and dont have a major war ya should be ok.

kids who have both parents from birth have a hard time with it because they have to learn to live without one or the other for the first time in life.
it destroys their ......safe home.........
I think it has a bigger affect on kids then people want to admit.
everyone says they adjust.....and they do, but their lives will never be the same again.
if this is happening in your life now, ask yourself in a few years. you will see first hand.
