Majority of the time people think divorce is just all about two spouses separating but it goes beyond that so apart from showing the fact that the both spouses decided to do what's best for both of them and abandon their children it also affects the children over time. And most kids often never recover from it.
Immediately those divorce papers are signed the home is split, the heart is split, and anything splittable is being split including the children.
Majority of the time the toxic partner takes custody of some of the children or all the children now think the kind of emotional and any kind of damage the toxic partner can cause to such a child because when two people married they both had their good and bad side.
Now let's look at this way two imperfect people get married in order to help themselves become better and in such cases raise better children than themselves but when divorce comes into the picture what kind of children do they raise separately.
Although many could argue that it's better for parents to go their separate way than to raise children in a toxic environment that's when both spouses are becoming toxic to themselves.
My conclusion is that Divorce breaks more than bonds. Because It carves scars into the innocent. The party involved should Protect the children, no matter the cost.
