Children's Voices in Divorce

Children's voices in divorce refer to the importance of listening to and considering children's feelings, opinions, and needs during the separation of their parents. Research shows that when children have an opportunity to express themselves, it can help them cope better with the emotional challenges of divorce. Involving children in discussions about their living arrangements and routines promotes their sense of stability and security. Professionals, such as psychologists and mediators, often advocate for children’s perspectives to be acknowledged, ensuring that decisions made during divorce support their well-being and foster healthier post-divorce relationships.
