Consequences of Divorce
Children and adults both endure emotional and financial troubles
after a divorce. It is also common for both adults and children to turn to
drugs and alcohol after divorce (Kayser & Johnson, 2008) According
to Kayser and Johnson, “Children consequences range from aggression
and anger to social difficulty, low self esteem, confusion, grief and guilt”
(Kayser & Johnson, 2008, pg. 9). Children are likely to these negative
feelings but at first but overtime these feelings will be replaced with relief and gladness (Kayser & Johnson, 2008). Adults that are divorced
have to make a huge adjustment financially, emotionally, and legally
(Kayser & Johnson, 2008) For adults, Kayser and Johnson states “On
an emotional level anger, anxiety, depression, loneliness, and poor
physical health are common reactions” (Kayser & Johnson, 2008,
pg. 9). Divorced couples have to sometimes make new friendships or
keep their distance from mutual friends, which can be stressful during
the divorce process (Kayser & Johnson, 2008). The legal process of
children custody is also a stressful task. The financial cost of divorcing
depends on each individual assets and debt (Kayser & Johnson, 2008).
These causes and consequences will often need the attention of various
professionals that can include a social worker.
