1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Option One is better because the discord in Two is destructive to the psyche of the children. Option Two is emotional abuse. No parent should ever belittle or discount the other parent to a child. To tell a child that one parent is bad is a way of telling a child half of him or her is bad. The two choices are not even alternatives.
