Abstract: Divorce is complex and painful process not just for the couple but also for their children. The family set up where the child develops has the greatest impact on mental health of the child. Children and adolescents represent a sensitive and at risk- population. Reactions to divorce vary according to the age group the child belongs to and the understanding of the event. The impact of divorce can manifest itself as anxiety, depression and behavioural problems. Children who experience divorce with high levels of parental conflict will show symptoms such as aggression, regression to immature behaviours, failing academic achievement, as well as conflict with one or both parents and develop a fear of abandonment. There is strong evidence of psychopathology for children exposed to high levels of post- divorce inter parental conflict. Neurologically, there is a reduction of brain volume in children of divorced parents. Specific parenting emotionality lead to changes in oxytocin levels. Parental sensitivity and parental availability are positively related to empathetic brain of children. Not all children experience similar effects of divorce. The level of resilience helps them cope with their changes. Resilience is determined by child’s perception and understanding of the life event before, during and after the traumatic event. Normalization of fears and child’s feelings can occur with peer groups. Parents seeking for divorce should minimize its impact. This may involve seeking for mediation or therapy to help communicate and reach for mutual agreements. Stabilization of daily routines and medication in cases with severe anxiety and depression is recommended. Children needing help may have an on-going anger and resentment, persistent depression, and the inability to enjoy the social lives in settings that they formerly enjoyed. They may withdraw from friends or school in general or develop behaviour problems which never existed before. Therapies with children include Play therapy- feeling balloons, Designing dad, Family Drawings etc are used. Group therapy helps in normalization of shame and isolation in children. Supportive therapy is used as adjunctive forms of therapy. Cognitive Behaviour therapy is used in older children. Dissolution of marriage is complex, children of all ages can have a lot of questions, confusion, and conflicting feelings when they have to deal with divorce, and even the most compassionate and attentive parents may struggle to meet all of their children’s need.
