Summary Of The Effects On Children By Susan Gadoua

In today 's society, divorce or remarriage rate has been growing rapidly. Divorces is a legal action between married people that is on longer together. Over the last twenty-five years, several studies has indicated that divorce process may affect family characteristics and most especially children 's cognitive performance. Divorce changes children 's lives through parental emotion and behavior. Divorce may also increase the risk of negative outcomes for younger and older children. Children from infant and toddler are less likely to be affected by divorce because is a early development stage (Leon, 2003). The purpose of this study is to better understand how parental divorces affects a child 's development, how children transition from living with both parent or divorces single parent and also.studies, how divorce could influence a child 's behavior, emotions, a child academic and their future relationships. Between young children and older children who react or adjust more to parental divorce.My hypothesis is to see divorce effect a child 's cognitive, emotional and psychological aspect class or at home.

Divorce is a heavy concept that has many implications for those involved. The situation becomes even more consequential when children are considered. As divorce has become more commonplace in society, millions of children are affected by the separation of the nuclear family. How far-reaching are these effects? And is there a time when divorce is beneficial to the lives of the children? This paper will examine some of the major research and several different perspectives regarding the outcomes of divorce for the children involved, and whether it can actually be in the best interest of the kids.

On her part, Cheryl Wetzstein in her article “Lowering Divorce Rates Urged As National Goal” argues that legislation should be put in place to checkmate the rate of divorce in the United States especially for a family with children. According to Wetzstein, the problem of divorce and its effect on children is a national goal which demands critical evaluation on the part of the government. Wetzstein claims that the effect of divorce touches every aspect of life. According to a study shared by Wetzstein, children from separated homes exhibit emotional, physical and mental problems; are easily exposed to crime and drugs; perform poorly academically, and are likely to commit suicide. Wetzstein states that seeing the unfortunate impact divorce has on these children, the government, as a matter of urgency, should come up with laws that would reduce family separation; this would not only preserve the future of the children but also saves government lots of money (2000).

Divorce is one of many controversial subjects in family and human development research. What inspired me to critically analyze the article “Does Divorce Create Long-Term Negative Effects for Children?” is the challenge it would be for me to put my bias aside considering I am from a divorced home. After reading the article and analyzing it over and over, I can’t help but think that the writer answering “YES” to this controversial question overlooked many variables and over generalized his findings and research. With Zinsmeister overgeneralizing his research, not considering enough alternate explanations for long-term negative effects divorce, and his lack of relevant information needed to assess reliability and validity are why I find this article to be insightful but not accurate and hope to show why.

The author describes the divorce is wrong, plain, and simple. She tells the audiences that parental divorce affects children future relationships and give out. And she uses her person experiences as examples and proves the impact of her parents getting divorced in short and long term. Also, she uses the statistical studies to point out that children of divorce are more likely to divorce. This article can inspire to the one who experience the pain of parental divorce or it can also disagree. This article is a personal point of view from a well-educated author to experience parental divorce since she was a child. I found this article in the Google Quick Search box by typing “short-term effects of divorce on

Another potential impact of divorce on children can be seen through their development. The article, Consequences of Parental Divorce for Child Development, by H. Kim (2011) reviews the impact of divorce on children’s development. This study compares children before and after divorce to measure the implications towards development. This study found that children had setbacks in test scores, interpersonal skills, were more likely to internalize behaviour (Kim, 2011). This study did not find any external behaviour issues or reduced reading capability (Kim, 2011). This information demonstrates the divorce issues can impact their learning abilities, which is something crucial to everyday life. The developmental impacts can coincide with future learning abilities and academic achievement in some children dealing with parental divorce.

     Furthermore, assumptions about divorce may be primarily be connected to the idea that happy homes create happy children whereas, unhappy, separated homes create the children to have problems. Moreover, what should be taken into account is that children learn what they live and that parents are role models. Not only do parents create the ideal of a good work ethic, skills, communication, logic but also commitment. In relation, the cycle of abuse also may be taught to a child. If a child sees abuse in the home he or she is more likely to exhibit the same actions compared to children from non - violent environments. Parents are still the bearers of large responsibilities according to their children and cannot just blame it on the media any longer. Although divorce is seen by many Americans as an unfortunate ending to a chapter in life, many still make the choice.

Although needed in severe cases of abuse, divorce harmfully impacts, wives husbands and children. The lack of understanding of the primary nature of marriage has brought about a withdrawal from the institution of marriage. Parents need to slow on the uptake and proceed with care before the decision is made that divorce is the best solution for the child. Parents’ marital misery and friction harmfully affect their children’s happiness, comfort and security, but as does being subjected to going through a divorce. Children who are living in very high conflict and tension filled homes may be at an advantage by being detached from the conflicts. (Marriages that run at a lower level of upheaval, conceivably over two-thirds of divorces are of this kind; however divorce can make the children’s circumstances much worse on the heels of a divorce).

Many parents that I know of have divorce in their marriage. Some had good communication and still was able to hold the family together. In my essay, I will be explaining the differences and similarities of two families going through a divorce. I will show the effects that divorce have on children and the parents as a

The article written by Sara Mille is might be useful for divorce parent or in process of separating. Divorce can cause emotional or behavioral problems to children. The article explains the importance to have good communication when parents are divorce or in the process. Having a peaceful divorce without violence or aggression, and children's equally time shared, betters their relationship with positive effect in the long-run that creates a strong bond with both. Studies have shown that spending equal time with both parents and agree to have children overn nights can help parents in multiple ways for good. For example, children who spend overnights with father can help to better knowne each other. It help dad be involved their child’s stages

In the society today, many children and their parents’ face divorces and the issues that come with it. In this essay, there will be descriptions of all the emotions both the parents and children feel and some that may affect them differently and how counseling may help ease the emotions and the statistics of divorces in America for all ages and reasons for divorce.

Other children do not see divorce as a positive experience. Instead, they see it as a negative experience. A negative experience is usually most common among children. Most kids do not want to see their parents split up. Their parents are all they have. They taught them, loved them, and even showed them of what family consists. In a study done by Robert E. Emery titled “How Divorce Affects Children” he states facts about how children feel due to their parent's divorce. Seventy-three percent of children said they would be a different person if it were not for their parent's divorce (Emery, 2000). They feel that the separation had a severe impact and changed how they are. On the other hand, couples who try their hardest to stay together but to no

Children may wish that they could have changed things such as completing chores, participate more in school, and avoid arguing with their siblings; anything to avoid the separation of their parents. From a professional viewpoint, it is crucial for parents to communicate with their children during the split-up process. Explaining to a child that the decision to part is because of the issues faced by the parents could help in lessening the likelihood of children bearing the weight of an adult’s situation. When divorce is present, I believe a family’s development can immediately be bargained, if the circumstances are not addressed appropriately. While every child in a divorced family is not necessarily losing a relationship, it is still a significant change. Children suffer emotionally and this can cause a strain on the family; furthermore, “many of the children caught up in the experience of divorce exhibit difficulties in functioning, including frequent behavior problems and deficiencies in academic performance, even years following the event”

Divorce is an ill-emotional experience that changes the lives of both parents and their children (Chavez, 2010). The relationship between parents is really important to the children as it makes them feel more confident. Mostly we see these things changing when the parents separated due to the custodial parent as children become more confused in their lives. It also leaves the parents affected. The literature covering this issue suggests that these disturbing events affect parents’ emotional, psychological, and financial stability and has been shown to also influence parent’s relationships with their children. This essay will discuss ways in which children of divorced parents can be affected by said divorce, compared to non-divorced parent’s children. Many states recognize some form of joint or shared custody that affirms the decision-making and caretaking status of more than one adult. This essay will illustrate reasons why parents should not relocate after the divorce looking at positive and negative effects on children. Furthermore the divorce of parent’s significantly weakens their children’s sense of security and stability (Gindes, 1998).
