What is Divorce?

A divorce is a legal procedure to officially end a marriage. This is unlike a separation,


where couples remain legally married even though they may be living apart

Statement of the problem

The alarming issue of divorce and separation is somewhat related to the age of marriage.

Although 90% of the adults marry before attaining 50 years, 45% of them break up with

their spouses before attaining their old ages.


The commonest ways of breaking up are divorce and separation, and the
terminated relationships have adverse effects on the wellbeing of the children
(Landau & Hissett, 2008). The new ways of life, new friends, and new daily
activities that parents adopt after terminating their marriages cause psychological
disturbances to the entire familyHow does Divorce affect young children?

The effect of divorce on children depends on the age of the children at the time when
the divorce is taking place, the gender of the child, and the characters of a child.
Other minor factors that may determine the level of affection is the degree of conflict
between the two parents, and the amount of support received from other relatives
and close friends. For instance, if a child is in infant age, they may not understand
the conflict between the parents

Divorce can bring several types of emotions to the forefront for a family, and the
children involved are no different. Feelings of loss, anger, confusion, anxiety, and
many others, all may come from this transition. Divorce can leave children feeling
overwhelmed and emotionally sensitive. According to various studies, the three most
common causes of divorce are conflict, arguing, irretrievable breakdown in the
relationship, lack of commitment, infidelity, and lack of physical intimacy. The
least common reasons are lack of shared interests and incompatibility between
partners. The divorce, in Morocco, is done under the control of justice, in order
to preserve the marital bonds of any spouse and to guarantee the rights of the
divorced wife and children. The dissolution of the marriage is thus pronounced by
the court in accordance with the conditions envisaged by the family codeAmericans
