There are millions of divorce every year. Children whose parents are divorced get divorced, the relationship gets worse, and there is a high possibility of reporting that they are dissatisfied with their lives (Brown 1999). More than 25% of women divorce within 10 years and one-third of all marriages are suspended within 10 years. Guldner and O'Connor (1991) stated that "group treatment of divorced children is a preferred treatment if possible." The focus of collective therapy with children is to feel that the child is not alone, to connect with others, to learn, to receive confirmation and support of fellows, and to coordinate experience (Gladding, 2005).
Researchers from divorced children began to study the widespread legacy of divorce in our society. Parent divorce adversely affects the ability to be loved and loved in the relationship of patience and loyalty (Wallerstein & Lewis, 2004). The literature on the long-term impact of divorce on adult children shows that happiness and overall quality of life and relationship are low for those who are experiencing divorce as parents (Christensen & Brooks, 2001). Many researchers in the field of marriage and family counseling discover that adults raised in divorced families are flawed in social skills and have special problems in dealing with their conflicts of marriage (Amato, 2000).
The degree of conflict in relations with parents affects the influence of divorce on children. Divorced parents will help the child by reducing or eliminating conflict between married couple. This article on divorced children and conflict explains what parents can do to manage their disputes and how to deal with them. In most cases, authoritative child rearing seems to be the most effective way to raise. Parents with such an authoritative child rearing style provide structures for the lives of their children, and they incorporate enough flexibility to be used for surprise, side steps and improvisation. As long as the children are within regulatory limits, they can make their own decisions. Finally, parents control their lives. Therefore, child rearing plays an important role in the influence of divorce on children.
