right and and i would add maybe
practically
maybe you need help and advice from
somebody to really make sure
that this decision is based on what will
be the benefit of the children
not what this one is saying or that one
is saying or to score this
victory or that victory but what will
really really benefit the children as
leia said
and i think it's just important to add
in a general way and in a general note
you know it's so important it's so
important we all know
in the best marriages and great couples
and beautiful functional homes
where there is basic livelihood and
people are normal and civil
it's not easy to raise children today
you know everybody is struggling
there's a lot of distractions a lot of
trauma emerging a lot of different
factors that you always have on these
shows you know
in terms of education and learning
disabilities and emotional challenges
and mental challenges etc etc
never mind when there's such a challenge
of a family
being broke a family splitting up where
there's a divorce situation
even if it was really important and
necessary to do
let's take that for granted for a moment
but now
you know tati is in one home and mommy's
in another home
so we all have to be mature we have to
become mature people you have to become
a great person
and even though all of us have pettiness
inside of us and all of us have a yate
sahara
and all of us get jealous and all of us
have difficult moments and we all lose
it once in a while and that's fine
you're a human being but it's so
important to
you know to paraphrase thomas paine
these are times that try
men's and women's souls when this
happens to a family you know realize
in in the best situation it's hard to
raise children so
it's so important for both of us for the
mommy and tati who are now divorced to
really rise to the occasion
and say you know yes our marriage didn't
work out for whatever reason
but the bottom line is let's be invested
together
to give our children the best possible
future
and that means number one to realize
that a child
needs two parents and needs two loving
parents and
celebrate the fact and even if you
despise you despise him or you despise
her
you and and for maybe for good reason
we're really not judging that at all
but you know remember that this is your
child's
father forever and this is your child's
mother forever and them having a good
loving relationship where they can feel
safe
and secure and soothed and seen by both
of their parents
is so so important and this
consideration
must transcend
almost every other consideration in the
world i said almost maybe every other
considerate probably every other
consideration in the world
and not because we're not weak and we
don't have our difficult moments
but you know but but let's face it again
and even in the best homes it's so
difficult certainly when you have all
these challenges
so give them give them that opportunity
give them that opportunity if you have
to compromise compromise
if i have to go beyond my ego and be
beyond my insecurity and beyond my fear
yeah this
is what behooves me when you're going to
be 95 years old remember
when you're going to be 95 years old i
don't think when you look back you will
regret
that your divorce was civil and that
your relationship with your ex
posted divorce was respectful dignified
civil
always making sure that the children get
what they need
physically emotionally psychologically
spiritually
socially you know i have a situation i
just it's so painful
a guy i don't know probably you can call
him a monster i don't like judging
people
he tells his ex he says i'm not gonna
they had they had a child together they
got divorced bitter divorce
i'm not gonna give you one day of peace
i'm gonna bury you and bury you and bury
you and bury you
how do you call yourself a bentaider the
shem such nurse to speak like this
you're not embarrassed to speak like
this you're not embarrassed
you know all of our your ishmael we talk
about hashem
and it all goes right into the dustbin
when we're angry at somebody we're angry
at our spouse
i'm going to bury you i'm not going to
give you a day of peace
where does a person come to say such
words and how
is this person protected by parents and
by siblings who pat them on their back
don't stand by when your brother or
sister's blood is being spilled
it's the responsibility of classmates
and friends and
and rebbies and rabbis and mommies and
tati's to stand up and even if there's a
disagreement
it doesn't give you a right to enter
into a world of blood
and vengeance and revenge and hatred
and who's gonna suffer it's not just
first of all your ex is also a person
also has an image of god you have to
respect them as a person
even if you're not meant to be married
to each other that's number one
the whole theory is about hillary said
the whole term is what you dislike to be
done to you don't do it anybody else
just because we got divorced just
because we have our quarrels and our
bickering and our disputes and we
couldn't be married together
therefore it gives me a right to lose
all of my nobility all of my menstrual
all of my refinement all of my humanness
and literally behave
like a monster and such people have to
be confronted by their families and
friends this behavior is not allowed
because every one of these guys is
getting protected from somebody good job
good job teach teach her or teach him
this is not how we should behave my
friends
