What Happens to Children of Unbalanced Marriages
Chen discussed the essential roles parents play in raising their children in an open and truthful way. Parents should be open about problems in the marital relationship, the family, and even honest about economic difficulties.
The best parents are those with no real secrets, parents who really listen to their children and take their concerns seriously. Each parent needs to work at building a healthy relationship with their spouse if they hope to raise healthy, balanced children.
Woodbury asked about what takes place when parents themselves are out of harmony with each other. Chen observed that kids of parents with unbalanced marriages often grow up to be unbalanced people.
When children act out in later years, the root cause can be traced to early childhood. They indulge in a variety of addictions to mask their inner pain-drugs, smoking, alcohol, overeating, and so on. When they become parents themselves, they fail to raise balanced children. In this way, society itself is negatively impacted.
This discussion raised questions about exactly how parents can stay away from bringing up unbalanced youngsters. Chen said that Moms and Dads needed to eat healthy and feed their kids healthy and balanced foods because a lot of problems came up from bad diet habits like excessive glucose. Furthermore, parents should communicate to their kids on a regular basis and let them know how they could be contacted in an emergency when Moms and Dads were at work. Regrettably, oftentimes busy, hard-working Moms and Dads would be entirely unavailable when they left your home, and supply little life guidance.
In the final analysis, children of unbalanced marriages acted out in their teen years and became dysfunctional parents themselves, and all this could be easily prevented when parents communicated well with each other and became available.
Lon Woodbury, the founder of Struggling Teens, has recorded the entire interview about how Dr. Mellilo is helping parents with autistic children on his weekly L.A. Talk Radio show for people to at their convenience.
