Am i wrong for staying in a relationship beacause of our child?

Answer 1

I have personally tried the whole staying together for the sake of the child thing and it didn't work. To me there are things in a relationship especially the bad stuff that children should not have to be exposed to but only you can say wheter or not you want to be in that relationship all I can do is wish you the best.

Answer 2

You shouldn't stay in the relationship just for the child. Whatever you're feeling for your spouse, the hate, the discomfort, the negativity, all this is picked up by the child. You are teaching him very confusing signals of what a person should do in a relationship. You are teaching the child to stay unhappy in a relationship. Is that your message? Because you can't get away years later saying, "But I stayed for you."

Answer 3

Most of the time, staying in an unhappy relationship makes it worse for the child. If you aren't happy, your child can't be happy. Does your child want to hear you guys arguing all the time, walking around being miserable?

I left my partner when my daughter was 9 months old, because I wasn't happy. It was the best decision I ever made. Excrutiatingly hard at the time - but now its far better for my daughter. Her father sees her three days a week and she loves us both. She is far better off with us apart.

Answer 4

If you're in an alright relationship then it's ok to stay for a child. If one or both of you are miserable, studies show that children are happier with happily divorced parents than they are living in a tense and stressful home. You decide where your relationship is and what the breaking point is.

Answer 5

Yes, yes, yes! It will only hurt your child if you stay in an unhealthy relationship. You need to be happy in order to keep sane and be capable of raising your child. A child can sense an unhealthy relationship and it will in turn, effect them. A child is no reason to stay in a reltionship that is going downhill. I have a child and am not with the father for various valid reasons.

Answer 7

yes because it only makes it worse!!!
the children know when you're not happy,trust me, I've been there
I stayed with my ex-husband too long because of our children, if I had to do it all over again I would have done things different, we've been divorced for yrs,remember the children will ajust ,it's not worth it staying in a relationship if you're not happy, you and your child deserve to happy, if it's not working get out of it.

Answer 8

What do you expect your child to learn about possitive, healthy relationships if you stay?

book: Too Good to Leave, Too bad to Stay"

Answer 9

If you're married--then no. In fact it's what you should do--stay. Believe it or not having parents who argue a lot is better for the child than divorce! (Unless there's violence involved.)

Answer 10

No, you are not. Only you know how bad things are. But sooner or later you are going to have to decide if the child is enough to keep you...if not pack your bags.
