Child 3 - 6 years old experiences this situation the most difficult, since it is for this age that the participation of both parents in the upbringing of the child is most important for the development of healthy attitudes towards other people.
Child 3 - 6 years old, going through a psychological crisis:
- becomes more aggressive, withdrawn, capricious,
- emotionally unstable
- sleeps badly
- loses the skills that he acquired earlier,
- can take the blame for the parents' divorce ("Dad left mom because I did not obey her, I ate poorly, etc.").
Children 7 - 10 years old such situation:
- evokes fear of the future,
- an inferiority complex appears ("everyone has a mom and dad, but I only have a mom"),
- school behavior changes,
- academic performance deteriorates.
Emotional Reactions to Parental Divorce 11 - 14 year olds adolescents and 15 - 18 year olds young men are similar:
- anger and anger at one of the parents or at both,
- shame about what is happening in the family,
- fear of loneliness
- fear of condemnation from society,
- fear of financial difficulties.
The task of adults in this situation is not to forget about the child, to support him in difficult times, to breathe in him the belief that everything will work out, come back to normal, and that he will not suffer from this. Try to resolve all children's doubts and dismiss fears by talking to the child frankly (as far as his age allows), create optimistic attitudes for the future, be together as often as possible and do not show the child that it is difficult for you. Indeed, in the case of a family drama, the child experiences two pains - his own and yours.
