@Prasad - Interesting thread.

Does the Child need to grow in atomsphere where both Mother and Father fight everyday?

Shouldn't the adults have common sense not to fight before kids, nor shout or yell at each other.

If any one of them gets abused, then the child who observes all the stuff that is going on around would definitely think he shouldn't get married or become a pyschopath or run away from home.

Another one if Father or Mother is an illicit relationship and if the child comes to know. Then what would be going in the Child's mind.

We can see all kind of examples in today's society. 

I definitely agree the Child needs both Mother & Father to share Love, Joy and Happiness and also the parents are responsible to bring them into this world with right attitude, good character, well mannered and helping Nature.

A famous quote by Confucius.

“If there is righteousness in the heart, there will be beauty in the character.
If there is beauty in the character, there will be harmony in the home.
If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nations.
When there is order in the nations, there will peace in the world.”

I would pose another question. Why does Old age homes are growing day by day in India?

Shouldn't the Sons and Daughters, Daughter in Laws should take care of them?

In this Materialistic world, Man is running for Money and Money makes many things.

The main reason is Ego, Desire and Temptation. My 2 cents.

Dear Prasad,

I support you. Child rights are more important. I need one information - What is the age of child and boy or girl?

Dear Super Hero,

Parents have to change in view of child.  You are also right.  A child  cannot grow happily in atomsphere where both Mother and Father fight everyday. 

I feel If the parents quarrel frequently, it is better to send the children to Govt. custody.   Parents have to  pay the children according to their earning capacity for chid's maintanance and both the parents have to allowed to see the children equally only in the child's place.

It should be a punishable offense to separate a child from either of the parents unless the parent are unwilling / uncapable of taking care of the child...

It should not matter whether the parents are married or separated... gender should not matter either...

According to statistics, 5% of the total population of 125 cr goes thru divorce. That translates to 3.12 cr couples. Also the number of cases which are not routed thru court are not accounted in the above mentioned statistics. Estimated around 2 cr + children in India are facing the same situation. The child visitation days at the courts are too crowded for any kind personal space to interact with the child, particularly with the very young ones. Result, they grow with one sided affection. The separated parent has no say in the upbringing of the child.

It's in appaling situation. The court process is initially related to the monetary & accusation aspect in the initial stage between the warring spouses.

There is Child & women development ministry, but the are concerned only with violation but not with the proper mental & physical development of children in such situation.

When a women files for 498a & DV she has a Chief Ministerial Officer, Protection Officer & the Public Prosecutor. But for the children, who cannot speak for themselves, there is no one.

The Mediation Officers, who have queue of 50 couples waiting to appear before them, are more interested in knowing the juicy details rather than point out or insist on the warring couple the negative effect on the child.

Do you know of any family court that has  convenient location for litigant spouses to meet their children?
