"When two people who have a child separate , one always suffers, because it is difficult in that situation to give the best of oneself ".
Thus begins the monologue of the conductor Teo Mammucari during the show "Le Iene", which aired last night. As required by the format , which in each episode dedicates a space to discussions and food for thought , the episode involved the well-known face of Italian TV who recounted his experience as a parent , after the separation with his former partner Thais Wiggers.
With his voice breaking with emotion Mammucari – who never before had spoken so openly about his private life and his experience as a parent – told of when he did not see his daughter Julia, who was in Brazil with her mother, for three years .
«Once she told me that she was to blame for my illness, because if she hadn't been there I wouldn't have suffered so much. I replied that she is not “the problem”, she is my strength . And I understood at that moment that when you separate you don't have to think about your problems , you have to think about your children . That's the only way you can be a good parent. I want to tell all dads – he concludes – not to seek revenge, just think of your children ».
