Question

Discuss 3 ways how you(as a child) would deal with the negative impact of a divorce

Answer 1

The parents’ divorce, leaves a psychological impact to the children. Children bringing the memories will be hurt that they (children) will tend to suppress or repress what they feel. Suppressing is when the child tries to forget the memories with effort while repression is the brain itself forgets them by default. The child might also show projection which is giving his feelings to other people. Either he may become a bully or the victim (in school for example).
