Recently,
I have found that I have been losing my
perspective of what I chose to do this article for. I
have been ranting about politics, and there is another
forum within this Site which handles those topics.
It's called Politically Incorrect(you should check it
out). What I set out to do with this particular
section of the Site was to help people, which
unfortunately, I have not been writing about. However,
I am making a concious effort to return to my initial
goal. With that said, this months article is about
Parents that split up and the toll it can take on
kids.
I can speak from the heart on this particular
subject, because I am in that very situation in my own
life, so in this instance I can say I have personal
experience. Parents should always keep in mind the
good of the child, I know what your saying, "No Shit
Sherlock"... but I think some people are not doing
this in our society. I think some people use the
child/children as weapons against their previous
partners. This leads to animosity between the parents,
which perpetuates the problem. The only thing we as a
species are even in existance is procreation, I know
alot of you believe our presence here has some more
important purpose, some bigger meaning, be it
spiritual or diabolical or even extraterrestrial,
however, I believe that our existance is not that
important in the scope of the universe, I believe our
existance here is primarily the same purpose as that
of the amoeba, to replace ourselves with our
offspring. I think putting to much importance on our
existance is what has caused many of our problems we
suffer from today as a species. We need to understand
that in the end all we have is what we leave behind.
Now some will say that God is waiting for them or in
the case of Reincarnation believers, another chance at
life. We will only leave behind what we have created,
and our children are our creation. I think its
important to make the child in a situation like this
see that you still get along, and that no matter what
the situation is, the child is loved deeply from both
parents,also, if the parents are involved with other
people, its important to have the child see that all
the so-called ADULTS get along.. I know this can be
difficult, but in the interest of the child, it is one
of the most important things, this way you can avoid
the dreaded " Evil Step-Parent" thing. If the child
knows they are loved by all involved, the situation
will be easier for the child to deal with, if its not
easy for you or the ex, then to bad, you both are
supposed to be the adults. And finally, do not let the
child feel as though one of you are the bad guy. In
time you can explain the situation to the child when
the are of an age to understand, but for now, let the
child be just that.... A Child. but thats just my
opinion--- Free... And those of you who know me, this
is out of the ordinary, as an after thought, I thought
I'd drop a thought on you to carry with you when your
working,loafing or driving, etc....whatever you may be
doing in your life and you feel, unimportant... check
this out, No matter how big the Universe may be, it
would still fit inside the Human Imagination. Ponder
that. Later...Free
