Do Children Usually Make the Same Mistakes Their Parents Make in Love and Marriage?

We, as human beings, learn and are taught many things from our parents actions, i.e., words they say to each other and how they say them, cruelty shown to each other, absence of one or the other parent, no respect, name calling, abuse, lying, cheating, cruelty, mental abuse, dishonesty, and many other things dysfunctional parents do and say to each other. People do not realize how much children listen and learn from their parents. A child is more than likely to follow the actions of their parents into their adulthood because this is what they've seen and heard in their lives. They will copy their parents actions, and in a lot of cases, become a clone of their parents when they marry.

Many parents do not take the time to show their children love and understanding and they "never" express any sort of love to their children and these children "never'" know how to express their love or show affections when they become adults. They will be cold and standoffish throughout their life. This is not right for children to be brought up like this...we, as human beings, should be shown love and cuddle when we're children. Children need to know they're loved and they're cared about. When parents conduct themselves in a dysfunctional manner, showing "no" love for their spouse, or for them, fussing and fighting constantly, and verbally abusing each other, they're teaching the children their habits. What we are taught as children, will be carried throughout our lives.

When parents show disrespect for each other, what do expect your children to do in school, towards other people and children, play time and inter-personal relationships, out-tings, and other extra circular activities? Children's foundations are built at home and how they treat their spouse, their children will more than likely treat people in a relationship with them in the same manner.

When parents are around their children, they should show respect and love toward their spouses at all times regardless of how much they may be irritated with their spouse. There's a time and a place to discuss things that will cause a confrontation between a couple and it's not in front of you young children. We want our children to mature to be strong, understanding, caring, loving, compassionate adults and if we do not teach them this when they're young...who is going to teach it to them?

Summation:

In my opinion, children should be given a loving, caring, affectionate and secure lifestyle which nourishes them to be a clone of their parents. When parents shows respect and love, their children will follow suit. In my opinion, every child should be told "You're loved and given a hug and kiss every day of their life." Parents who show no love nor cares what their children are doing is giving them a disservice.

Our world needs to raise children who will respect, love, and care for other people, and not children who turn out to be a dysfunctional adults in their lives.
