Part Two on the podcast called “Clear and Vivid with Alan Alda” whose guest speaker was Judge Judy: In another part of the podcast, Alan Alda and Judge Judy are speaking about relationships and Judge Judy remarks that “Anger is a much easier emotion to deal with than pain or sorrow.” She goes on to put this into the context of divorce and how that can ultimately damage children. She says:
“You have to love your children more than you hate each other. When you first got together, you loved each other and you didn’t have the children for the purpose of making their lives miserable. There was joy, there was happiness; there’s the hope that your children would have a happy childhood and a fulfilling adult life; and then you put them in the middle of this war which they had no part in creating and so not only are you depriving them of parents but you are depriving them of childhood.”
The only thing I can add to this is “Amen, Sister.”

Thanks for introducing me to Alan Alda’s pod cast. Being of an age that was raised on the TV Guide I have no sophistication in finding pod casts. I appreciate your sharing of a good series.
