The writer went on to urge people to emphasize children’s mental health in family disagreements.
Danielle, daughter of actor, Yul Educhie has been defended by a content writer Eshi Ayo after she removed her father's name from her social media page.
Following criticisms by Nigerians, Eshi took to Facebook to defend Danielle.
According to the content writer, Danielle Edochie is greatly saddened by her parents’ split, especially given her father’s public behavior.
She stressed the emotional and psychological impact such situations have on children. The writer feels that publicizing family issues publicly, particularly those involving children, is damaging.
She wrote;
“When a marriage falls apart, it’s not just the husband and wife who are affected – the children of the marriage are the most affected. That is the case of Yul Edochie and his daughter, Danielle.
Maybe the decision to remove his surname from her name is due to the pain and confusion she’s feeling as a result of her parents’s separation.
Children need stability and security and the only thing that a failed marriage offers them is a lasting blòw on their emotional and psychological well-being. But everyone wants to criticize Danielle. How can she wade into her parents’ fight? But the fíghttt affects her more than even the parents. In cases such as this children are forced to take sides even when they don’t want to. You have no idea what the poor girl is going through.
Someday in school, someone will show her a video of her father and his new love dancing Isimili-jiofor and you expect her to be happy? She used to come home to the warm embrace of her father but they now see occasionally and you think she’s not deeply hurt? Imagine how damaging these can be nau.
Divorce and separation make children feel a sense of loss and abandonment because it changes their whole family structure. These children will sometimes feel confused and uncertain about their own identity and place in the family. They’d begin to feel angèr and bítternèss towards their parents, especially the one they consider to be the cause of the chaos. It’s not as funny as it looks to us, it is pàínfùl.
Before you bring your family affairs to the internet, consider the mental, psychological, and emotional health of your family, especially your children. Sigh!”
