When a couple choose to divorce there’ll certainly be major changes in their lives and if the couple have kids, it’ll without doubt be the kids that suffer the most.

For kids, divorce can be extremely confusing and in some cases may have long term effects especially on their future family relationships and lives. Many children will need counselling for a few months, even years following the divorce as well.

Children of pre-school age can find it even more distressing as suddenly mummy and daddy are no longer together and perhaps they are pulled between the two and don’t understand why their parents are all of a sudden apart. Nevertheless with children this young they may well forget the trauma as they get older and deal with the split better than their elder siblings.

Children in their teens could very well become angry with one parent or the other and will lay fault on who they think brought on the split, others can become withdrawn and subdued as they cope with their feelings. Children of this age may well have issues in the future with their own relationships and may have early sexual experiences that do not really mean anything.

For quite a while, children can still be affected from the divorce and if either parent re-marries may have issues accepting their new ‘parent’. If the child is in school, especially secondary school their grades could very well suffer.

To prevent any unneeded stress on your kids keeping your divorce as friendly as possible is essential. Parent’s differences should be put aside for the childs sake and the divorce process made as easy as possible.

Attempt to explain to the child exactly what is happening and do your best to avoid arguing with your partner in front of them. Harsh words among angry parents may well be forgotten by the parent but can stick in a child’s mind for several years to come.
