How divorces effect the children
I found an article that evaluated how a divorce effects the children. A survey was done in both Great Britain and America. There was a study done to compare the behavioral problems, and test scores in English and mathematics. Children whose parents were divorced were compared to children whose parents remained intact. For boys, the effect of separation or divorce was dramatic. Their behavioral problems and academic achievement was reduced by considering behavior problems, achievement levels, and family difficulties that were present before the families had broken up. Divorce did not seem to have quite as big as an impact on girls but still did exist.
