Owing to the growing drifts nowadays between the married couples, they are often getting separated or divorced. The separation from the parents at the tender age is taking a toll on the mental and physical health of their kids.

Sometimes, the kids are so small at the time of divorce that they may not even understand what's going on between the two most loved persons of their lives? In such a situation, when the children are very small, it is wise to maintain a similar relationship with the parents even after the divorce or rather the kids must get to spend equal time with both their parents, reported Live Science.

Sharing and caring, Researches have found out that the children who spend time with both of their divorced parents are less likely to have problems in the future than those who spend time with only one parent in their lives. This is because it is very crucial that the child gets to develop a bond with both the mother and father that will help him or her to grow as a more matured human being.

According to Time, there might be particular problems that the child may not be able to share with only one parent and invariably need another parent to shoulder on. To deal with these situations, the parents must make sure that the children spend same time with each of them.The duration of stay in any of the parent's house is of course up to the child's will also.

However, this equal sharing of time is beneficial not only for the children but also for the parents as well. This is because one parent gets to relax while the other attends the infant and vice versa. Since the parenting tasks double in cases of single parenting, this becomes a substantial contributing factor for the mental and physical factors of the parents too. Therefore, in every way, a child must mandatorily share time with both the parents.
