Acharya Prashant explains that parental conflict creates a double calamity for a child, primarily through the negative impact of company and identification. Since parents constitute the majority of a child's social environment, living with two people who are constantly fighting is intolerable and damaging to an impressionable mind. During a conflict, parents become extremely self-centered and driven by petty ego, causing them to disregard the welfare of the child in their pursuit of winning the argument. The child, being deeply identified with the parents, internalizes their aggression and hatred, effectively becoming those negative traits. This psychological distortion often occurs without the parents even realizing the extent of the damage they are inflicting. Acharya Prashant further clarifies that separation or divorce is not a definitive solution because it does not transform the underlying ego of the individuals involved. A parent who remains unchanged after a divorce may redirect their aggression toward the child. The true solution lies in basic inner transformation. He suggests that parents can use their love for the child as a motivation to accept defeat or change their behavior. He highlights that a significant portion of the world's population is psychologically distorted by adolescence due to bad parenting, which he describes as an unpardonable crime. This distortion is compared to sentencing someone to a life of suffering with a disfigured mind, which is far worse than physical disability.
