描述分居家庭

A

周末你去接孩子了吗？

zhōumò nǐ qù jiē háizi le ma?

Did you pick up the kids this weekend?

B

去了，孩子情绪不太好，说想爸爸。

qù le，háizi qíngxù bù tài hǎo，shuō xiǎng bàba。

Yes, they weren't in a good mood and said they missed their dad.

A

唉，这孩子，离婚后，他一直都这样。

ài，zhè háizi，líhūn hòu，tā yīzhí dōu zhèyàng。

Oh, dear, since the divorce, they've always been like this.

B

是啊，我心里也不好受，但我们都得各自生活，总不能为了孩子，再把日子过回从前吧？

shì a，wǒ xīnlǐ yě bù hǎo shòu，dàn wǒmen dōu děi gèzì shēnghuó，zǒng bù néng wèi le háizi，zài bǎ rìzi guò huí cóng qián ba？

Yeah, it's hard on me too, but we both have to live our own lives. We can't go back to the way things were before just for the kids.

A

是啊，但孩子太小，理解不了。

shì a，dàn háizi tài xiǎo，lǐjiě bù liǎo。

Yes, but the kids are too young to understand.

B

我只能尽量多陪陪他了，周末尽量带他出去玩玩，分散他的注意力。

wǒ zhǐ néng jǐnliàng duō péi péi tā le，zhōumò jǐnliàng dài tā chūqù wán wán，fēnsàn tā de zhùyìlì。

I can only try to spend more time with them, take them out to play on weekends, and distract them.

A

这样也好，彼此都多理解一下。

zhèyàng yě hǎo，bǐcǐ dōu duō lǐjiě yīxià。

That's good, we should all understand each other.

A

最近和前夫联系了吗？

zuìjìn hé qiánfū liánxì le ma？

Have you been in touch with your ex-husband recently?

B

没有，除了关于孩子的事，我们尽量避免联系。

méiyǒu，chú le guānyú háizi de shì，wǒmen jǐnliàng bìmiǎn liánxì。

No, except for matters concerning the children, we try to avoid contact.

C

你们是怎么处理孩子的抚养权的？

nǐmen shì zěnme chǔlǐ háizi de fǔyǎngquán de？

How do you handle the children's custody?

A

孩子主要和我一起生活，前夫每个月都来看他。

háizi zhǔyào hé wǒ yīqǐ shēnghuó，qiánfū měi ge yuè dōu lái kàn tā。

The children mainly live with me; their father visits them every month.

B

这样也挺好，避免了更多的争吵。

zhèyàng yě tǐng hǎo，bìmǎn le gèng duō de zhēngchǎo。

That's pretty good, it avoids more arguments.

C

是啊，关键是孩子。

shì a，guānjiàn shì háizi。

Yes, the key is the children.
