The Fragmented Family

The fragmented family refers to a family structure where relationships are disjointed or disrupted, often due to factors like divorce, separation, or living apart. In such families, members may experience weakened bonds, reduced communication, and emotional distance, which can impact their stability and sense of cohesion. This fragmentation can influence children's development, emotional health, and overall family functioning, highlighting the importance of maintaining strong, connected relationships despite physical or emotional separations.
