This paper deals with the psychological processes and | |
emotional experiences of children whose parents are going | |
through the process of divorce and the complications | |
posed by divorced or divorcing parents moving to new | |
locations. The paper begins with a discussion of the | |
implications of divorce, claiming that divorce is a | |
change that affects everyone in the family and poses both | |
risk and opportunity. Emphasizing that many parents will | |
move away during or after a divorce, the paper also | |
discusses the influence of divorce on custody, parent | |
child relationships, child development, child | |
independence, and the psychological leap required of | |
everyone affected by a divorce. The second part of the | |
paper focuses on children's understanding of divorce as | |
well as their psychological experiences. For children in | |
the face of divorce: Nothing Changes. Children exhibit | |
attachment for their parents throughout their lives. | |
Therefore, divorced parents need to provide an | |
environment that is as supportive as possible for | |
maintaining those attachment relationships. The paper | |
concludes by noting that both the custodial and | |
noncustodial parent must consider carefully how they will | |
act in order to assist the child in maintaining contact | |
and attachment with their parents and to ensure healthy | |
child development. (MOK) | |
