When Elephants Fight

There’s an old African proverb that says, “When two elephants fight, it’s the grass that suffers.”
Conflicts that are managed well generally are a good thing. They resolve a problem and we move on. But when elephants fight for territory or dominance, something innocent is bound to get caught in the cross-fire. In divided families, children have to move between homes but when their parents battle it’s the kids who get trampled. If your children move between homes give a lot of consideration to how your interaction impacts them. Show consideration to the other home so the grass can grow.
