According to a study Nicholas H. Wolfinger from the University of Utah (USA), its own family of children of divorced parents still break more often than the families of those whose parents had not divorced.
"This phenomenon is called the" cycle of divorce "or installation transfer to a divorce from generation to generation", - he says Nicholas H. Wolfinger.
10 years Wolfinger family studied by the children of divorced parents. It turned out that these people are more likely to marry at a young age are more likely to marry someone who also suffered divorce of parents; In addition, they have 1/3 less likely to get married over 20 years. If one spouse comes from divorced families, the chance of divorce, the couple increases twice; If both - in 3 times. Early marriage - one of the major causes of divorce in these people.
"The older you are at the time of marriage, the less likely you are to divorce. This is good advice for everyone ", - comments Wolfinger. On the other hand, the more a child is experiencing instability during adolescence, the more unstable it will be in adulthood. Matter how many tears the baby survived. Many adoptive parents appear, then the new family again collapse. And the death of a parent influences the child very differently than divorce.
After the divorce, the child feels guilty or is looking for the guilty; in his heart he is waiting for the return of the parent. Wolfinger writes: "Of course, it is good that now constantly conflicting families are able to get a divorce. But the destruction of the family, in which parents are a little conflicted, hurt the child as much as life in an atmosphere of scandal. "
