To Be or Not To Be!

Unhappy parents together or happy parents apart?

- Isha Jain

Let's close our eyes for a few minutes and imagine a scenario. Your child is about the age of a toddler and he is slowly beginning to understand things. He is trying to differentiate between what is good and what is bad. What is happy and sad. But wait, he is going through this process of understanding things all alone because you and your partner are too busy arguing with one another.

Your child is in his room, under the bed probably scared because of all the screaming and loud noises. Whom does he run to protect himself from all of the yellings, he wants to hide in the security blanket of his parents' arms but he can't. So what does he do instead, he keeps all of his feelings to himself and swallows all of his fears. Open your eyes now, does this situation sound scary to you?

To be or not to be together is a question that entails the knowledge and understanding of various aspects which are somewhat related and fall in the close peripherals of this question.

You can't in any circumstances come up with a decision without considering your own and the fragile feelings of your children. This whole process can get very overwhelming, especially if you are already burnt out because of your toxic relationship.

Such a crucial decision can never be made in haste as it will only lead to regrets and sorrows in the long run. A lot of thinking and dwelling over certain things is needed in making this decision. Here are a few things you might want to consider before you jump at a conclusion.
