Abstract/Summary:
The purpose of this project was to explore in narrative format the impact of parental divorce. Approaching her own marriage, the writer examined the increased risk factors for divorce, fear of intimacy, and deficits in communication. A thorough literature review will examine the effects of divorce on children and adolescents, cohabitation, the benefits of a healthy marriage, and intergenerational divorce. The writer's implications for social work practice are also discussed.
