Who are these ppl who fight and get violent in their children’s presence?First off they need to be given some parenting lessons and then the issue of conflict can be taken up.Getting violent in front of your little child sounds horrible.

you may think they don’t understand n you can just say “nothin” n move along.kids understand things.they need to know why it happened.add to that d fact that kids nowadays r more aware than we were at their age n not giving them answers is only shooting yourself in d foot.

I know that there are bound to be some questions, but how much do you think that a child really needs to knw? I mean this could be so devastating to them, even if they don’t see the violence. But to learn that someone that they love has hurt the other person in their lives that they probably love more than anything? I cannot even imagine how they could process that, or that there is anything that anyone could say that would help them to understand. I am an adult and can’t fathom how someone could do this to someone else. And think about the ruin that this could cause in their lives in the future, not really having a good idea of how people in love are really supposed to treat one another.

I can’t imagine a parent ignoring or dismissing such a query from a child.The child is obviously confused and startled to be asking this question and such a reaction from a parent will only leave the child feeling unsecured and vulnerable.
