Children Want More Say in Parents' Divorce
A recent article by ABC revealed that children of divorcing parents want to be more involved and have a say in the outcome. While most parents want to keep the details of the divorce from the children, a study found that keeping kids out of the loop could do more harm than good.
The study conducted a survey of children aged 10 to 17 and found that most of them felt left out when their parents made major decisions for them without consulting them. According to some respondents, when they do get the chance to speak up, they end up being scolded, mostly if what they say goes against the parent’s interest.
