In a post on her Instagram page, Precious spoke about how parental conflicts can affect children, leaving them struggling to express themselves and feeling pressured not to take sides.
She also advised people to choose their life partners and co-parents wisely to avoid putting their children through similar experiences.
She wrote:
"Today my heart goes out to children who have been turned into pawns in the game of chess between two parents in divorce or separation. Often found where one, who is the Chief orchestra of manipulation and another who is a world-class retaliator based on returning energies for survival, abound.
Dear poor child, both adults have denied you a normal childhood and met your expectations for each milestone with disappointment grounded in a power tussle and an unnecessary show of control.
Your confidence has been replaced with a silent mouth filled with unspeakable words, an excess need to not cross both parties or seem to be on any particular side because you would hurt both parents you love dearly. You've learned maturity at a tender age and have acquired the skill of manipulation as a basic tool of survival. You've learned maturity as a child but silently you pray that you could have a normal child life or at least have both parties understand how much in the middle you've been placed but they just don't see it because they've both an ego to feed.
Some hearts like mine will always bleed each time it thinks of how much it failed you with one wrong decision but in the end, as you navigate through this unpleasant experience please learn that the biggest decision a person would ever make for their offspring is the choice of a life partner/co-parent and let this experience spur you to chose wisely and to avoid repetitions / circles."

The kids are always the ones caught in the cross fire.

ReplyDeleteThese older men are master players, you can never win them.
It should have been innocent kids caught up in two foolish adults decisions. None of you is better
ReplyDeleteThese ladies know pretty well who the older men are but choose to dive in for selfish reasons. Someone his wives ran away from and distance their kids from him. If he gets good political appointment, the story will change.
