A great deal of study has to be performed to arrive at workable solutions to the male sex drive.

The divorce rate has a bad effect on families, especially children.

The husband needs an outlet for his sex drive. It should be something that will not offend his wife.

The problem must be solved by psychologists and counselors.

I think any time a child loses their bond and connection with a parent or both parents it is a problem. In many cases children also witness a great deal of conflict in the form of arguments and sometimes violence. This sure affects a child's behavior and outlook on the world. Children learn behavior more by what we model than what we say. Actions still speak louder than words so the problems people have in their marriages do affect their kids.

The problem is not always divorce though. It is more about emotional intelligence and how people resolve problems and work through issues. Many children are better off when their parents get divorced if there is a lot of anger, arguing, and abusive behavior. So divorce is sometimes a better option than continued exposure to parental dysfunction. Many children of divorced parents felt relief when their parents got divorced so it is not always traumatic. It cannot be helpful for children to think that marriage is about tolerating and accepting conflict and abuse. What message does that send/? Sometimes divorce is necessary.

Divorce can be very traumatic in many cases though. It depends largely on the age of the children and where they are in terms of development. The older children are and the more they can understand the reasons for the divorce the more likely it is that they will adjust at some point. Still, even that depends on how it is presented. A teen who feels that their parent's marriage was a lie is probably likely to have serious trust issues.

A young child who has no memory of their other parent may not be as affected as young children who cannot understand why their parents are divorcing but does experience the feelings of loss. The amount of conflict and anger after the divorce may also have a serious impact. Parents who learn to be cooperative and co-parent their kids are more likely to help their kids adjust. The question really isn't about whether divorce itself is causing problems. It is about how people adjust to divorce and what they model for their kids.

Studies clearly show that divorced parents who try to work together and communicate openly with their kids can still raise healthy well adjusted kids. Sometimes events are only horrible because we convince kids that they are. Divorce may not be ideal but in some cases it is better than kids being exposed to conflict and marital problems. It is simply not possible to say divorce always has a negative impact on all kids, just as we cannot say all married parents raise healthy kids. In the end, children of divorced parents who do have problems probably suffer as much from the divorce as they do from the conflict and discord that preceded the divorce.

Yes, I would believe this to be the case. As the family situation and the stability of the family has a dramatic impact on the child. A child needs to feel secure and love from both parents, whether or not they stay together. However the child also learns from each parents' behaviours and what they do, and seeing a divorce may affect how a child views marriage. That said I do believe that it is better that the parents are happy and show love for their child, rather than staying in an unhappy marriage and fighting in front of the children/child.
