Family conflict



Family conflict has been one of the big issues in relation to single parent families, they argue and end up in divorce and separation of the extended families.

A newspaper article published on Fiji sun ,Monday March 30,2009,talks about how the eleven year old Narewa lass Varanisese sige vatunitu had lost all love for her family in her village because they had chased her mother away.

Mrs Vatunitu said she sensed that the family of her late husband did not want her after the 100th nite.Things became worse after Mrs Vatunitu set up a makeup shift shed beside their household items for extra cash.

According to the late husbands family they chased her out because she was going to sell their Mataqali house which belonged to them for "11,ooo'.

Many families lack to understand each other or talk things over with their family in order to avoid conflicts which later leads to major disaster in the family.

  2. Not all families choose divorce as a way out of the marriage but you are right, most people do!

    At one time, getting a divorce, was not even an option for married couples but now its become a norm.
