The split up.
Does has an affect on a child.
They debate on custody affects them more.

Where you once have parents surrounding you?
You now have one closely connected to you.
And they fighting over splitting up material stuff.

Not even concern about your personal health.

Where else?
Do you hear about physical and emotional custody?
Where it truly comes down to financial?

We, who believe that a united front solves things?
Knows, even during a divorce this bond shouldn't change.

Let not the child be a tool to be used.
In the dispute between the parents of a child.
Where in time they will try to blame one another?

When the child's seems lost and alone?
All because their happy home is gone.
Watch, how money ruin it all?

And, the child wonder what's going on?

Soon, they be in therapy.
Where parents are seeking reasons for their silent ways?
And it took spending money to find this out.

Just remember, the child at one time had two parents in the house.
And, now he's torn between parental split up.
Six months here.
Six months there.
Re-adjusting to another change.

Oh, the life of a divorce child.
Where you tossed around?
Where you're treated like a piece of paper?
All because of the split up.

Is loving a child first hard to do?
They once was the joy between two and not one.
