I hate generational curses with a passion, so that's why I believe they should be stopped by any means necessary because of the pain they cause. Every family has at least one generational curse; it can be anything from drug abuse to alcoholism. My definition of a generational curse is an ungodly pattern that shows up in family: divorce, poverty, drug abuse, to name a few. If children are affected by generational curses, it needs to be broken by any means necessary.
