Nowadays it is undeniable that parents of certain families separate due to several factors. Even when I was still handling retreats and recollections both to high school and college students, I have heard of sad stories of my students that at times, I was in the middle of my sharing then suddenly, a student cried heavily for she remembered the separation of her parents and its painful effects on her and her siblings.

I'm not in the position to judge them especially the parents but somehow, I pity those innocent children who become the ones severely and harshly affected by the event. Of course, no one can deny that in any marriage or relationship of similar attributes, challenges and trials are present but the matter should be brought to harmony for the sake of the children.
To this effect, the children become lost and what is worse is when they will also grow without learning how to love genuinely. At times, they grow as problematic kids then later on as adults but who can blame them if on this ordeal, they have nobody to guide and accompany them. Most of the time, parents' separation result to negative effects on the children and everyone should try to prevent this sad reality to happen for the sake, wellbeing and future of the children.
