| How to help children of divorce? |
| |
Specific things that parents can do to help themselves and their children include the following:
- Let children know that they are loved and that parents as well as children need time to do things they enjoy
- Include the children in social activities that everyone can enjoy
- Understand that children need predictability
- Be keenly aware that children need relationships with both parents, if at all possible
- Keep children out of the middle of parental conflicts
- Provide children with positive role models
- Let some things go or change regular routines to adjust to the demands
- Divide the chores and let the children be responsible for taking care of their own possessions and rooms
- Allow children to contribute to family problem solving
- Do not expose children to casual relationships. If a serious relationship develops, introduce the person slowly into the children's lives

Research studies conducted overtime, especially Wallerstein's 10 year follow up suggest that some effects of divorce are long lasting. A significant number of the young adults in the follow up study appeared burdened by vivid memories of the divorce, by feelings of sadness, continuing resentment at parents, and a sense of deprivation. Parents need to know that not all of the negative effects mentions in the studies will be experienced by all children of divorce. And those that are present can be made less intense with education, nurturing, good communication and lots of love.
