• W282640405 abstract "The predominant view of children from separated families is as vulnerable victims. It is often believed that decisions about children's welfare and best interests should solely be made by adults. The present paper demonstrates that children are social actors in their changing families, who have their own views and some useful advice to give to separating parents. One hundred and seven children between seven and nineteen years of age were interviewed about what advice they would give parents who were separating. The advice was coded into the following categories:-Consulting with Children, Parental Relationships, Suggestions about Arrangements, Not Separating, Considering children, the Well-Being of Children and Keeping Children Informed. The strongest theme to emerge was that parents should keep children informed, listen to them, respect their views, and take their views into account in decision-making. The study suggested that if children are involved in decisions which affect them, they will be more likely to adjust to their post-separation families. Psychologists and other professionals working with children and families can encourage families (and the court) to allow children's voices to be heard. ********** The discourse and research on divorce has tended to focus on the risks and negative effects of divorce on children. A large body of research has now been built up examining the effect of separation and divorce on children. A recent review (Rodgers & Pryor, 1998) sums up the findings of over 200 research studies and concludes that children from separated families have a higher probability of adverse outcomes. However, long-term negative effects typically apply to only a small number of children, who are about twice as likely as children from intact families to have less favourable outcomes. They are more likely to experience poverty, to have behavioural problems, to perform less well at school, to need medical treatment, to leave school/home when young, to be sexually active at an early age, and to be depressed. Amato's (2000) review suggests that whether the well-being of children is adversely affected by parental divorce, depends on such factors as disruptions in parent-child relationships, loss of emotional support, economic hardship and other negative life events. The Children's Issues Centre research has attempted to focus its research on what factors might help children to be resilient to the risks of divorce/separation, and determine ways of supporting their well being following family change. Family dynamics are clearly an important factor in how well children adjust to their parents' divorce/separation. Amato (2000) suggests that children are protected from the effects of divorce by active coping skills, and support from family and friends. The frequency and nature of contact with non resident parents is one aspect of post separation families which we have explored (Gollop, Smith, & Taylor, 2000; Smith & Gollop, 2000). Frequency of contact with non resident parents is, however, not a particularly good predictor of child outcomes. A recent meta-analysis (Amato & Gilbreth, 1999) suggests that warm, authoritative fathering, and positive, supportive, co-operative co-parenting behaviours are part of a pattern which are associated with positive child coping, whereas negative, hostile behaviours (to the child or to the former partner) are associated with risk for children. Other research supports the view that conflict before, during and after separation is likely to exacerbate problems (Amato, 1993; Amato & Gilbreth, 1999; Amato, 2000; Pryor & Seymour, 1996; Emery, 1999; Kelly, 2000; Lamb, 1999; Lamb, Sternberg & Thompson, 1999; Whiteside & Becker, 2000) and that quality rather than quantity of contact is the most important factor (Munsch, Woodward & Darling, 1995). Our research seeks to add a qualitative dimension to the outcome research, in order to reach a better understanding of the meaning of quality, by looking at children's perspectives of the processes which take place in families after separation. …" @default.
