attributed to the fact that they end up growing with the
             mother after a divorce and the absence of same sex parent has a telling
             effect on the normal behavioral development and social skills. Also
             children from a divorced family tend to be less educated compared to
             children from double parent families. This is because financial impairments
             of divorce adversely affect the affordability of education for the
             Divorce is a highly stressful experience for children and hence it is
             essential to reduce the effects of the pathognomic processes. That
             childhood parental divorce has a direct psychological distressing effect in
             adulthood has been confirmed by a British national study. The participants

             which further increases to 1.80 by the age of 33. [Bryan Rodgers].
             A 25-year-old study by Judith S. Wallerstein, a psychology lecturer at
             the University of California-Berkeley, has revealed the long-term
             consequences of divorce. For the study Wallerstein monitored the lives of
             93 children who experienced parental divorce right through to their adult

             profound long-term influence on them. She says, "We'v...
