Recently, I've been thinking about whether parents divorce must tell their children, even if they are only 6 or 7 years old.
Concealment, is it a good thing or a bad thing for children?
*。In the journey of life, some people are destined to experience an unhappy childhood. These unfortunate experiences can have a profound impact on their lives.
The divorce of a parent is a huge trauma for a child. However, whether or not you should tell this truth to your child has been a highly debated issue.
On the one hand, concealing the truth may help protect children from harm and allow them to have a relatively stable environment for them to grow up. On the other hand, the revelation of the truth can also make it impossible for children to understand why their parents would choose to divorce. This suspicion may carry over into adulthood, affecting their relationships and career development.
Young children are often unable to understand and accept the fact that their parents are divorced, which can lead to psychological problems such as anxiety and depression. By hiding the truth, parents can create a stable and safe environment for their children that will help them build a positive self-identity and self-esteem.
However, while hiding the truth, children may feel deceived and betrayed when they grow up to discover the truth, which can have a negative impact on the parent-child relationship.
An unhappy childhood is a huge trauma for a child, and although an unhappy childhood may be a long-term trauma for a child, it does not mean that they have to spend their whole life **. Today's children are not as vulnerable and ignorant as we think, they know a lot and understand their situation well.
Building a positive self-identity and self-esteem is also key. By cultivating their own interests and participating in social activities, children can find their own value and meaning, so as to gradually get rid of the shadow of childhood.
