One of the many terrible things you can do to a child is to make him a tool for your passive aggressive tactics.
It's a lifetime of talking to your child in a way that proves a point to your partner. It's bad enough when things are not communicated clearly, it's horrible when a poor child is made a whetstone of never ending arguments and conflicts with your partner. I don't think the psychology of such a child can remain unimpaired. Yet the hypocrisy of the Eastern society is such that they don't bat an eyelid when they scorn the broken family statistics of the West, knowing fully well how the 'success statistics' in our society are mostly possible because of the ability and willingness to hide issues under the rug.
The opposite of a broken family is a happy family. Not a toxic family that stays together. Please.
