Our kids in the midst of parents' hostile conflicts

We often refer to kids as "sponges" due to their astonishing ability to absorb so much of the information around them. We are often amazed at their capacity to learn every so quickly and soak up the world around them and expand from all that they see, hear and experience. I've seen it with my own kids, as I'm sure you've seen it with yours. They take it all in -- all that is around them: the good, the beautiful, the bad and the ugly. When I came across this video on social media, I was reminded of how important it is for parents to understand and respect this reality.

Mother of 2, Effie Morchi encourages parents through API's blog to be mindful of what their children are exposed to during their conflicts.
