was just watching a channel 8 drama (hurry go buy 4d cuz mindy hardly ever watches tv).. it was showing this couple who divorced but stay together with the kids, just in separate rooms.
son: mummy and daddy why dont you two sleep together anymore?
mummy: its because....
daughter: do you like (the boy's friend's name)?
son: no i hate him!
daughter: what will you do if your teacher forces you to sit with him?
son: i will pick a fight with him.
daughter: thats right. mummy and daddy dont like each other anymore. so if you force them to be together they will only fight. now that they stay in different rooms everyone is happier.
WOW. this is not about a couple who forces themselves to stay together for the sake of the children, blaming their fate to have married the wrong person.
i view it as a couple who still loves each other, cant live together as a couple, but stay under one roof as friends, not forgetting their responsibility as parents.
hence one should be firm about what they want and dont want, yet forgive and smile that things happened and continue to live harmoniously.
any opinions?
