A South African lawyer, Milton Hosea has advised parents to avoid engaging in physical and verbal altercations in front of their children.
He argued that if parents can hide to have s3x so their children won’t see them, they should do the same during quarrels.
According to Hosea, children who witness domestic violence are likely to lose respect for marriage.
“Parents, hear this. You hide to make love so your children won’t see you. Good. But why don’t you also hide when you want to quarrel? Stop quarreling in the presence of your children,” he wrote in a Facebook post on Wednesday.
Because when you fight before them: You plant fear in their hearts. You reduce their respect for marriage. You teach them that shouting and insult is the normal language of love.
Quarrel in private. Correct each other in private. Protect their little minds. Remember, children don’t forget what they see. As you hide your romance, hide your quarrel too. Thank you.
