Relationships Quick Answers
What kinds of behavior changes can parents, teachers, and caregivers expect to see during the time around a separation or divorce?
Parents need to remember that divorce is stressful for
their children, just as it is for the parents. In the
short-term, perhaps for several months or even a couple
of years, children may act in ways that are irritating
and sometimes disruptive. This behavior is
understandable in view of the changes taking place.
