In 1971 Dr. Judith Wallerstein embarked upon a landmark study of over 100 children from 60 families in the midst of divorce. This groundbreaking research into the effects of divorce on children revolutionized the way society thought about divorce. It shows that the adjustment and emotional well being of the children of divorce is more dependent on what happens after the divorce rather than on conditions in the pre-divorce family. The importance of what occurs in their relationships with their parents after divorce has long-lasting effects on the children long into adulthood. It shapes their identity, their romantic relationships and even their desire to have children. It also requires forgiveness, understanding and finally entering into a real healing process.In listening to this audio program, adult children of divorce will finally understand the specific ways their parents' divorce and especially what has occurred after the divorce has had lasting effects on their lives. In today's climate of concern about family values, this study will prove invaluable in understanding the way in which, even after the trauma of divorce, real human and practical actions can positively effect and shape the lives of children of the legacy of divorce.Wallerstein, Judith S. is the author of 'Unexpected Legacy of Divorce', published 2001 under ISBN 9781565116290 and ISBN 1565116291.
