Families where both parents work have some advantages.
Is it bad that the both parents work? This is an excellent theme to talk about. Nowadays life is expensive, and most of parents have to work to support their families and to bring them a better life, the culture has changed, recently isn’t strange that women go out for work.
In my case since I remember my father and my mother have been working, and my sister and I had to go to a childcare and my experience was that I became as an independent person, I guess my sister too, I think it helped us in that way, but in another way I think it has some disadvantages because parents can forget to stand by the children or to help them in some situations, they can neglect them.
I am agree with this phrase because I think the children see the parents effort and they also become as an independent persons. I remark is not bad that the parents do it, however they have to support the children behavior and look after them and also stand by them.

Is it good for children to have both parent working? It is something very important for society, because nowadays a lot of families have both parent working and the number is increasing every day. But it is not necessarily something bad; I mean it has advantages and disadvantages. An advantage could be that the family has more money, so they can buy more stuff and increase them utility. A disadvantage maybe is that the children could feel lonely at home and have psychological traumas. Finally, I believe the parents have to think about it and take the best decision.

Families where both parents work have some advantages
Nowadays, is very common that both men and women work. Many people could think it´s a huge disadvantage because they may neglect their children, however they do it because life isn´t easy. They want to give their children a better life. First of all, an advantage is that there are associations take care for children while parents work. In those places, are qualified people that take care of children and they learn how to be independent. Another advantage is that with the wages of both, at home, will not lack necessities such as food, clothing, education, etc. In conclusion, there are many advantages and disadvantages, but couples have to sacrifice a little of your time to be with their children, to give them a life not lacking anything.

Families where both parents work have some advantages.
Some people say that woman shouldn’t work because her children need her, I want to say to this people: Surprise! the world has changed and the rol of the woman at home has changed too.
In my economic point of view, I thinks that is very good that both parents work, because it lets to have a better life.
In my psicologic point of view, I belive that guys with worker parents are less fearful than guys who have a “traditional” family.
I can say this because I have a irrefutable evidence and that evidence is my little sister; she was born when my mother started to work out home like my father, since I can remember my little sister is more active than me, she is very bold and doesn’t feel ashamed when say her points of view or when something funny happens to her, in few words: she is totally opposite to me.
I think that the reason for this difference, is this: I was born when my mother used to be at home all the day… and I clearly remember when I went for first time to the kindergarten: I was very afraid because I had to play with other people and not with my mom, that was traumatic!, Unlike, my little sister was very happy to be with other children and to have “another mom” ( how she used to call to her teacher), I was very surprised for her behavior but, now I can understand.
Other advantages are that parents could organize better their time with their children.
The third advantage is that children could be proud to have a mother who make an extra effort, and can see her like an example to imitate.
The only disadvantage, is that some children could feel that their parents doesn’t love them, but anyway, in the future this children will be grateful to their parents for the effort that have done to create them.
In conclusion, families with both parents work, have a big advantage: their children will be secure persons in the future.

People have children too young - before they know whether their relationship is "right".
When someone meets an attractive person and they start a relationship, and over time and the couples are more close each other. So, start to have sex and for different reasons they didn’t use protection and have a baby. When this young couples speak with their parents and they explain that situation, they force get married maybe, because, parents don’t like that your sons have a baby outside marriage.
Nowadays, it’s very common see a lot of young couples together. I think that those persons will not be happy because, the other person wasn’t appropriate for her or him. Or maybe, couples are happy but, their way will really hard because, they need move over a house, have and care at “the little baby”.
Anyway I think that have a child brings happiness, love and is full of blessings.

"Families where both parents work have some advantage" is a very interesting theme . So I decided to talk about it . I think that one of advantage is that their children become easily in independent people because their parents can not be always with they,Then they have to learn to do many things alone.
*go to school alone.
*prepare food.
these are some examples that the children of families where both parents work must learn to do.
There are also some disadvantages, sometimes the children need more support in their studies, especially when the children are in the elementary school.
In general i think that a family where both parents work is not bad and i agree that there are some advantages because this is my case and i have learned to be independent.
"Families where both parents work have some advanteges"
The culture has been changing lately and the number of women that are not financily dependent of her partners or husbands are growing. I think that this is a great new culture because the couples now can both work and have a bigger income and i belive that it gives to women more confident on themselves and they are able to have an opinion on what they spend their money and probably that will cause much less problems because both will be agree on the decitions and I belive that it will improve the comunication between the copule.

Divorce is not necessarily bad for children
Over the last years, divorce has become a very common theme, but what happens when marriages have children?, Is divorce necessarily bad for them?. When couples deal with a lot of conflict and the constant fights and problems are affecting the whole family (especially kids), the best option is to get divorce, however many couples decide to not get divorce and staying together for the children and that decision could cause more harm to kids. In my opinion, divorce can be pretty hard for kids at first, but eventually, they will realize divorce was the best for all.
Imelda A. Miranda Aquino
Nowadays, divorce is something that happens frequently often, that’s why it has become effortless for the children to understand it. However, the parents have to know that divorce is not easy for their children. They should talk before a divorce with their children about it, to make them feel they aren’t alone.
Divorce must come after a series of problems that have no solution. Although the parents have a bad relationship, they should make an effort to reach an agreement, with the help of that agreement their children won’t be affected by the situation.
If the children remain with their mother, as happen in most cases, their father must shows that he will always be there for his children.

Families where both parents work have some advantages.
Every time it's harder that a family can live whit the father's income alone, that's why now days many woman work to help out with the household. I think that this situation has more advantages than disadvantages. I believe than the principal advantage is the quality of life that can be given to their children, because finally it's what they want for their children, other advantage is that the children become more independent and self-confident when they make decisions. Some people think that when both parents work, they don't spend enough time with their children. However, I think that is more important quality time than just spend a lot of time whit they. For example when the parents get home they can check their children's homework and ask them about their friends, about their problems, also they can go out the weekends, because many times, there are mothers at home all day, but they don't know anything about their children, because they are just watching TV all day or whit their friends or neighbor and not taking care of their children.
Karla Alanís
Divorce is not necessarily bad for children.
In our days, many parents are divorced, that isn't necessarily bad for children. Thinking of a family that has problems, that haven't a good communication with the other members, a family where the parents are always complaining of everything and doesn’t enjoy the advantages of stay in a good place with people who have a nice attitude. Which situation is better for the children? Parents who are together although are always screaming and complaining to each other or parents who are divorced but nevertheless they support their children. In my opinion, divorce isn't necessarily a signal of an unhappy family or a family that leads to children with psychological problems or something like that. The advantages of a separated family are, for example, children living in a place in peace without the screams, violent arguments, upsets, etcetera; Parents with a better humor, probably more relaxed; Instead of a family which, because of the parents think that is better for the development children if they stay together, is always unhappy.
Priscila Robledo
People have children too young -before they know whether their relantionships is "right"
Nowadays increase teenagers that have children. i think it´s because an unwanted pregnancy and their ethics helps to decide have the baby but in my opinion young people no have mature and this situation results to they don´t be good parents because keeping a baby is expensive and isn´t easy.
I think this situation have many disadvantages.
Not all young people haven´t preparation to raise them but in most cases no happen.
In conclusion, young people have to know the responsibility that is have children before they have.
Araceli Villegas
Divorce is not necessarily bad for children.
In our days, many couples make the decision to divorce. Maybe by mutual agreement, or just part of one of the two. These decisions directly or indirectly borne by children. In my opinion,the way children react depends on the situation and the stance they take their parents. How to react also influences the child's age. Divorce can affect children if their parents don’t cooperate in trying to bring the situation in the best way. Some even have psychological problems and can’t stand the idea of not being with a united family. Over time may impact on that person, even repeat the same pattern. However, it is not be need that way. Many couples who divorce can go ahead and childrens not need affect by it. They can be live same than other person. This doesn’t mean they like the idea, but can accept for live a comfortable and peaceful life despite of the situation.

DIVORCE IS NOT NECESSARILY BAD FOR CHILDREN
The effects of divorce depend on many factors. The big question is: Can divorce be good for children?
Some people claim that children below three years of age have limited awareness of what is really going on. Therefore they are less affected than 3-9 year olds, between this age, see themselves as the bad person. Older children tend to adjust more readily because they are more likely to discuss the situation with friends. They also understand and recognize benefits from the divorce such as ending parental fighting.
In my view, the divorce not in all cases can be necessarily bad if parents know how to handle it.

Families where both parents work have some advantages.
It´s true that when both parents work, they pay less attention to their kids. However, in my opinion the fact that both parents work has some advantages.
First, the children have a better opportunity to success in life; they can have a better education that can lead them to choose a prestigious career in a prestigious university, and finally get a great job.
Second, the children become independent; they have more people in their social circle that only one person “Mommy”, they learn to socialize since they are kids.
Third, they can have more luxuries; when they are in high school they can have a car, thing that is really important nowadays because of the insecurity. Also they can have better clothes and stuffs that sometimes make them feel more secure about themselves.
Finally, I believe that if both parents work, they can have enough time to spend with their kids, if they make an organized schedule. It´s required an extra effort, but is possible to have the advantages mentioned before and attention to the children.
Families where both parents work have some advantages.
Nowadays, it’s common to see men and women working in different jobs. Now moms don’t stay at home all the day taking care about their house and children, they go out to work and take place in labor market, and now they can help economically.
In the past, people thought that women must be at home to take care about it and all the things children could need. Their “job” was to clean all the house, to cook, to help their children with their homework or something like that, but women opened their minds and they started to be part of the labor market. This can help them, he and she, economically, because women earn money, too and parents can pay the school for their children easily. Maybe they won’t have many problems to buy food, clothes, to keep a good house, etc.
I guess that if these families learn how to organize their planner, they could earn more money and take care about their children and the house, and this could be an advantage for them.

Single- parent families’ can´t bring up children as well as traditional families.
Often, the traditional families can bring up children better than single-parent families, but not always.
A traditional family is not a synonym of a good bringing up children, because there are a lot of factors who must have a good single-parent and traditional family.
Of course, is more difficult for the single-parent accomplishes with the works of the office and the house, but we have a lot of example of single-parents who could bring up very well their children.
I think that the Love to the sons can break up with any problem.
Gerardo Suárez
Families where both parents work have some advantages.
I believe that the best advantage for families where both parents work is the income. In most of cases, their children can receive a better education like in a private school, and we know the most of children who are studying in there tend to be able to speak English in a very short age. Another think is that the responsibility is not falling only on the father, so if him have problems with his job the mother can help to support the family.
Something interesting about this topic is that children became more independent. They have to grow up faster than others because the situation requires.
Juan Carlos Pastrana García
Divorce is not necessarily bad for children
In these days, the topic “divorce” is more common that in the past times. In my opinion, when a married couple starts to have problems , for example: infidelity, punch, etc; the best decision is the divorce. Some women still fear divorce, because they think that the divorce isn’t the best for their children, because them don´t live with their father, but what is better, living together for love or commitment?..I think that is worse that the children , see their parents fight continuously, or attacks, because this can affect them psychologically.
The advantages are, now they will live with more peace, having good times with their parents, because both should continue with the responsibility of their children.
Angélica Lizeth García Briones
Divorce is not necessarily bad for children
These days, divorce is more common than before and there are so many forms to get a divorce
without harm children.
Children may have difficulties in the process because there are usually arguments
between parents and it is always hard for a child to see that.
But it is not necessary that a child has problems.
If parents talk to the child in a serious way and tell him the reasons
why it is better than their live separately,
Children can take the situation in the same serious way.
It is important that parents refrain of shoutings and accusations in front of the child.
It is also important to show children that being divorced is not going to change the
relationship they have with him.
There are therapies that children with divorced parents can take to help them
cope with the situation.
In summary,It is just a matter of act civilized.
In my own opinion, children can grow up better in a pacific home with divorced parents instead of
a disturbing home with angry parents all the time.

Divorce is not necessary bad for children
When the couple get divorced, the children are not going to be necessary affected, probably they are going to have some advantages, even though is going to be difficult for them, some children because their parentes divorce get a better behaivor. Why?, well this is an easy answer because normally when the parents are not still together the children stay just with their momy or their daddy so they improve their grades and put more effort in their new life
When the couple has a lot of problems the children would rather their parents were divorced, because is better than be hearing shouts and having a sadness life.
Families where both parent work have some advantages.
Nowdays, the traditional way where only the father works and the mother stays in home to take care of their children its changing, at least in the big cities. The families are modernizing and both parent are playing the same roll.
In my personal opinion, its great advantage to have double incomes, this way the families have more opportunities to bring a better life to their children. In the other hand, the children can grow-up without the support of a full time mother and this can be a disadvantage for some people; but in my personal opinion, the kids start maturing and take care of themselves when they don't have a mother that take care of every action that they do.
Finally, i think that this topic have a lot a discussion for and the ideology of every family can be very ambiguous and more when you compare a family from small towns with another of the big cities.

Divorce is not necessarily bad for children...
Is bad or good to the children when the parents get divorce?
Nobody can decide that it's correct or not cause every family and child think,feel and could react so different about the situation, but in my personal opinnion I think no always is bad to the children if their parents have gotten divorced- why? Because many times couples decide to stay together due to children they have,regardless if they are give them a healthy enviroment to live cause probably they doesn't live in armony and probably it will affects children growth.
It's true that we are youth, we don't understand why aren't our parents in love? but if they are angry and figth all the time, they probably will hurts to their children with scream, they're only has been provocke a psichological trauma. Then if they decide to separate and explain to the children that always will be their parents that hasn't to pick up somebody of both.
In the other hand, I think children suffered less if their parents decide to separate on time before they damage so much the relation ship between both of them hurts by themselves.
Victoria Montalvo
Families where both parents work have some advantages.
In my opinion it is not necessarily something bad..
Nowadays life is expensive, and most of parents have to work to support their families.
if both parents work, help to support children's future.
One disadvantage where both parents work, is that some children could feel that their parents doesn’t love them.
Maybe the children could feel lonely at home,But it is the risk they have to take to have a better life.
In conclusion, in families where with both parents work, is not bad because is for your childrens.
Sandra Herrera
Divorce is not necessarily bad for children, because I think that a family with divorced parents is better than a family living together but always fighting. And talking about the damage that the status of the parents could make on the kids, I believe that, in some times, could be better for the kids to see their parents on their own way but happy than together but always angry(:
Marce Rivera
Divorce is no necesary bad for children
In the most of case can considerated the divorce like something bad for the childrenbut they don´t considerate whenone of the parents can be a bad parent,in that case the divorce can be positive for the children i.e. if the father was an alcoholic person, he can hurt his children an his wife , in taht case the divorce coul be thebest way for the children.
Abraham Trejo.
For a single-parent it is more difficult to raise children because besides he/she has to take care of his/her baby, the parent has to work to bring money to the house at with that he can get all the necessary things like food, clothes, etc.; by the other hand a traditonal family it has more balance, because for example both parents can work at the same time, or one can work and at the other one can keep a look on the child.
The first advantage in my opinion is just because the mother works and her role to be a housewife has changed. Male chauvinism has been reduced in this families, and it´s perfect because the new generations of children hasn´t tabues about the roles of men and women in the society.
Nowadays is very common this kind of situations, not lonely in the mexican families, until the most conservatives cultures has been changing their way to think. It´s only a consequence more to the new tendency of liberal feminism and surely is only the begining. It probably will be the the rule rather than the exception in a few years more.

I think that the families where both parent work have some advantages and disadvantages.
Nowadays, its good that yours parents work, because no one depends of each other. If they get divorce they could continue getting money. Also is an advantage because they show to the children not to being dependent.
Another advantage is that the have more money to spend on the family, that if only one of them worked.
An disadvantage is for the children, that they wouldnt see their parents too much time. Probrably when they came from the school nobody is waiting them in their house.

Nowadays, the people who have a baby very young it´s a big problem, because, they don´t know that financial difficulties are not made better by two people who don’t yet have reasonable means to support themselves. Given the high cost of living, it isn’t always feasible for two people to adequately earn the support they need and do things like plan great careers or stay in school.That is why couples separate and return to request support from their parents.
In my opinion, all young people should think before doing things and avoid a myriad of problems for themselves and their families.
