Varying Effects of Divorce

The situation has changed over the years and many problems are becoming more common. One of the many things that seems to be becoming increasingly common in society is divorce. Divorce is common in today's society, but it is not necessarily accepted and seen positively, there are many implications due to the way society sees divorce. Divorce in any family affects children and parents in various ways. This can be caused by a variety of factors, families respond in different ways.

In recent years, the divorce rate has risen sharply (Bridgeman & Alvon, 1991; Lowen & Mill, 1998). Many documents mention the various effects that divorce has on children. The most important finding is emotional interference (Carry, 1989) and behavior (Wright, 1984). In particular, boys were found to be angry easily (Pieri, 1985). Wilson and Ruth (1985) speculate that an increase in behavioral disturbance and juvenile delinquency is due in part to an increase in divorce rate. In a study of 300 juvenile offenders, Cook and Turner (1978) noted that parents' divorce rates are significantly higher than those of non-late parents of the same age and socioeconomic status. Among Minnesota state junior high school students whose parents were divorced, more absenteeism and disciplinary measures were recommended more frequently than student samples from uninterrupted families. (Suku, 1987)

Children of any age may get hurt by divorce. Divorce may lead to guilt, sorrow, uncertainty, irritation, and uneasiness. The effect of divorce depends on the age group of the child at the time of divorce. There are five groups. Parents may feel happy after getting divorced, but they need to give the child a sense of security through the exam. The first group is "baby" (DeBord, 1997). This group can not understand the concept of friction, but you can find changes in parent behavior. Infants may respond in different ways. The baby seems to feel uneasy. They may not be able to eat properly and sleep, and may have problems with poor digestion. Parents can do a lot to help them (DeBord, 1997)

Divorced parents can experience various effects. From short term to long term, from mild to severe. Not all children of divorced parents experience difficulties, but many children are still affected by rejection. (Divorce. Personal note on Josh McDowell's divorce) More than 1 million American children are divorced by parents each year. In addition, parents of divorced parents have experienced a separate living even before their 18th birthday. The effect of divorce is also a lifetime experience of the child involved. It may continue from the day parents are separated from adults. (Divorce. Personal memo on Josh McDowell's divorce)
