Divorce As It Affects Children
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing current social research and the views presented in the popular press in light of the legal aspects of divorce. Among legislators and researchers, there is nearly as much debate now over the effects of divorce on children as there was in the 1970s. Research design has changed and more long-term longitudinal studies have been made, but opinion appears to be split much along the same lines as it was 25 years ago. There have been significant changes in the popular press, however. Few current articles discuss the effects of divorce on children, choosing rather to focus more on time management technique for single parents as if being a single parent is inevitable. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
