A CHILD’S SEPERATION
I grew up with the dream of being married to my Prince Charming and to live happily ever after. That was the basic American Cinderella story for most young girls. Sadly, there is no living happily ever after a divorce. The word divorce means an official ending of a marriage by the court. When a parent divorces, the cause probably was: incessant fight, uncontrollable anger, a partner cheating, drinking problems, money issues, abuse and gambling. Almost half of all marriages in the United States end in a divorce. In a divorce, there are no winners. Everyone, especially the children, is affected. Many children of divorce may suffer from fear of abandonment, hostility between parents, and loss of attachment.
Fear of abandonment plays a huge role in producing a child emotional problem. When a parent is not in a child’s life, they fear that they are going to lose another parent. For instance, the child may feel as if the divorce is their fault. They feel that if they tried harder getting good grades and stop the arguments, then they could have prevented the divorce. Despite how many times an adult say “it’s not your fault,” anger and hostility arises towards others.
After a divorce, the parents may feel compelled to be civil in front of their children. Arguments over the phone or face-to-face may cause children to feel responsible and sad. Usually, one parent would talk about the other parent harshly. While doing so, the parent is forcing the poor child to take sides. Choosing which parent to live with is the hardest thing for a child. When a child chooses which parent to live with, the relationship with the other parent is severely damaged.
Separation from family, friends, and pets can cause loss of attachment. This usually causes distress among young children. Children may no longer have that old contact with friends and family members. Nothing can replace that child’s cousin, father, best friend, mother and etc. A child is most likely to open up their problems to their closest family member or best friend. If the child has to move for personal or financial reasons, then most likely the child would feel sad and overwhelmed.

Sorry that was an accident. I repeated it by accident.
Divorce can be brutal for most children. They might feel as if their dreams are shattered and their ideal family is broken. A divorce may be the only panacea to the constant bickering from parents. If both parents are happy, then the child is happy. Therefore, a divorce doesn’t always have to be bad. It actually depends on the parents and the cause of the divorce.
