I sincerely wish I've thought this long enough to be able to make a concise, coherent write-up. Bear with me.


Single Parenting is becoming a very common reality in our world today, and whereas anybody can claim victim, the only true victim of circumstances remains the child, for it is the
child who is being tossed around, wrapped up and hidden to 'cover shame'. It shouldn't be so! Children should be allowed to live their lives to the fullest, nothing in their makeup tells a story that bears the difference we try to impose on them.

That said, every child ought to experience the complete joy of parenthood; the best part of the two. This right doesn't change even if both parents, for a reason or the other couldn't stay together.

They shouldn't be used as pawns in the ego battles of parents.

Shared custody should be a finite family law, unless perhaps one of the parents are a risk of bodily or psychological harm on the child.
