Number of pages:

ABSTRACT:
18 pages in length. Divorce is the ugly reality of a failed marital union between two people; when children are involved, the ugliness is compounded by the pain they experience at the demise of their family unit. Toddler, adolescent or adult, divorce hits children hard at any age and leaves a list of psychological damage in its wake. When children are young, some argue parents should figure out how to keep the family intact through the developmental years until they are old enough to emotionally process the harsh reality. Others claim adolescence is the worst time to divorce because of the detrimental impact it has on the budding teen and his self-esteem. Then there are those who state there is no time in a child's life when they escape the ravages of divorce, even in adulthood. No matter the time of life when a child's parents divorce, this single source of emotional devastation is responsible for myriad psychological troubles. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
