Description

How does a couple reach separation? What happens after the end of a relationship? Is there a way to reduce the impact of divorce on children?

In our country, one in four marriages is now ending in divorce. Divorce is often the last resort, but a necessary choice in a cohabitation filled with disappointments, a painful event that stigmatizes all family members. It not only brings serious difficulties to the lives of the former couple, but it also disrupts the emotional balance of the children and irrevocably alters their daily lives.

However, this process can be made less painful for everyone, especially for the children, with the right approach. Experienced psychologist-child psychologist Alexandra Kappatou offers valuable advice for dealing with divorce, which will be useful for any thoughtful parent in a similar situation, as well as for anyone who comes into contact with children and their families.
