MITIGATING THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF DIVORCE AND FAMILY STRUCTURE DYNAMICS: COPING STRATEGIES AND RESILIENCE
Coping with the negative effects of divorce and dynamics in family structure can be tough, but a direct relationship between the offspring and one of the parents after the divorce can assist in mediating the negative influence on the children [4]. Based on Bastaits et al. [4] findings in a study conducted making use of 618 parent-child pairs who took part in the divorce research, it can be inferred that the provision of parental care, even amid divorce, has been recognized as a crucial safeguard for children's welfare. It should be noted, nevertheless, that parents and other members of the family frequently find it difficult to help their children during the challenging period following a divorce. In essence, divorce is a painful and heartbreaking life experience in which adults have a tough time adjusting to life afterward and may have a negative impact on how they interact with their children. Helping to provide a means of escape from the effect of divorce and to cope appropriately with the adjusting process leads to examining the possible intervention and preventive measures that could mitigate the alarming rate of divorce in society.
De Anda et al. [5] carried out a qualitative study on children's postdivorce adjustment. The study revealed that residential mothers' postdivorce separation distress has both direct and indirect implications for children's postdivorce adjustment. Through a longitudinal study involving 319 mother-child dyads, it was found that higher levels of separation distress in mothers were associated with increased internalizing and externalizing behaviors in their children.
These findings highlight the interdependent associations between parents and children's postdivorce adjustment and emphasize the importance of addressing separation distress and co-parenting conflict for positive outcomes in children. In a quantitative study carried out by Al Gharaibeh [3] on the effect of divorce on children, the researchers discovered a correlation between divorce and a higher prevalence of several effects of divorce, including financial stress, inability to focus on class, sleeping disorders, and stubbornness.
However, the study failed to consider the children's perspective regarding the divorce process, focusing solely on the viewpoint of their mothers. Examining the children's perception would be of great importance. Similarly, Jackson et al. [11] examined the connection between the social support of persons affected by parental divorce, their expectations for their careers, and their confidence in their ability to find true love in a romantic relationship. The findings show that professional expectations and confidence in romantic relationships were considerably positively correlated with the level of social support. The study was based solely on quantitative data, which will not allow the participants to express themselves fully; qualitative data can be added to supplement the findings and will give the participants a voice in the research process.
