When divorce occurs in a family it affects more than just the adults involved.
Children suffer from the break-up of a family.
Often, the children are shut out or ignored during the crisis. This only worsens the situation for them. During a time of family turmoil, children can feel caught in the middle and on an emotional roller coaster. Children have feeling just as adults do. They will experience such feelings as helplessness, loneliness, fear, anger, guilt and sadness.
