Unfortunately, it often happens that two people who no longer love each other try to save their marriage for the sake of their children. This decision is a win-win for everyone.

How marriage for children destroys their lives

According to a psychologist, marriage for children:

• increases their stress level;
• provokes behavioral and learning problems.
• has a negative impact on their future perception of relationships.

Looking at such parents who stay together only for the sake of their offspring, children understand: there may not be emotional closeness, meanwhile, conflicts and hostility in relationships are the norm, and one's own needs can be ignored so that others are good.

• joint upbringing of children;
• psychotherapy for parents and children.
