When parents part : how mothers and fathers can help their children deal with separation and divorce / Penelope Leach.

Leach, Penelope, (author.).

Summary:

"Using the latest scientific research in child development, Penelope Leach covers the various effects of divorce on children in five stages of life (infants, toddlers/preschoolers, primary school children, teenagers, college students/young adults), many of whom are far more deeply affected than previously thought. She explains recent studies which overturn many common assumptions, and which show, for example, that many standard custody arrangements for very young children are harmful to children's attachment to their parents and therefore to their brain development"--Provided by publisher.
