Structure

• The most critical change that occurs to a family's definition after a divorce is the core structure. Both parents are split from one another, so the family is somewhat broken. To those staying in the family home, it may seem as if a member of the family disappeared. Children aren't able to see both parents at the same time at home. If the parents are unable to communicate and get along with each other, it can impact special events such as school functions, birthdays and holidays.
