Children Of Broken Families: Contribution To Social Problems
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Parents often do not comprehend the far-reaching effects their actions have upon their children; indeed, mothers and fathers may wrongly believe that some children are old enough to both understand and accept the concept of divorce, while the rest are too young to comprehend or be affected by its occurrence. One of the problems is that the parents all too often do not understand the myriad feelings that plague their children, not realizing that the divorce extends far beyond the boundaries of the mother and father. Whether it is because children hold back their feelings as a means by which to appear strong or that they are just not able to express them, the parents are not aware of the significant and negative impact a broken family has upon their children, often and unwittingly setting the stage for social problems later in life.
