Forty percent of children today will have to experience their parents' divorce before age 18 (U.S. Census Bureau).
The most difficult time for the child is during the first year after the divorce.
Most children do not have serious problems after their parents' divorce; however, as adults, they are twice as likely to experience mental illness, substance abuse, and failed relationships.
