Every thirty-two seconds, a child in America experiences his or her parent’s divorce. Today with the divorce rate around 50 percent for more than 30 years, two generations of children have experienced divorce as a “way of life.” Unresolved chronic conflict between parents has been shown to have negative effects on their children for the rest of their lives. Parental conflict is more closely associated with children’s problems than any other problem in distressed families. Some studies indicate that parental conflict predicts a child’s behavior problems. There is a Better Way Most children are resilient, and many even thrive if the adults are willing to assume the responsibility associated with learning to work together cooperatively as parents and adults. Children need to know that they will continue to be loved and nurtured by both of their parents—even under separate roofs. The family is still their family whether everyone lives in one home or two. Many people need help in learning to separate issues that belong to the adults from the needs of the children. How do we put this understanding into practice?
