Sure...life is tough. Marriage is tough. Being a grown-up is tough. But kids are kids. You don't do things to destroy their belief system.
I just read this story and just can't seem to help the bile from piling up into my throat. Couple found dead after a fight in Singapore. I mean, we are all grown-ups and there is a grown-up way to deal with things, isn't there? How is it OK to have the children witness such brutality and unkindness.
We don't need to shield their eyes from the horrible things that happens with human existence but at the very least, we can still show them that it is OK and there is always a way to work things out, right?
I don't know. There was another case in Malaysia that happened recently. A man had an argument with his wife because he thinks that the wife is having an affair. He orders the kids to sleep, kills his wife (maybe the other way around, who knows?) and then hangs himself, waiting for the kids to make the gruesome find the next morning.
Now, tell me. How is THAT OK?
