TY - JOUR PY - 1987// TI - Long-term effects of divorce on children: a developmental vulnerability model JO - American journal of orthopsychiatry A1 - Kalter, N. SP - 587 EP - 600 VL - 57 IS - 4 N2 - Research and clinical work with children of divorce have focused primarily on parental separation as a traumatic event and its effects on children as a crisis situation. The present paper, based on clinical experience, considers potential long-term problems of these children in key developmental areas: handling anger and aggression, separation-individuation, and gender identity. Implications for prevention and service delivery are presented.
