LONG TERM EFFECTS OF DIVORCE (From a news story by CNN San Francisco Reporter Greg Lefevre - September 10, 2000) When Sharon Keating decided to divorce, the people she most worried about were her kids. Jessie Keating, her daughter, says about herself, "I have felt down and sad and even though I didn't really show it.” "Those problems could last decades," says author Judith Wallerstein, " and emerge in adulthood." Judith Wallerstein adds, "And when man-woman relationships move to center stage. At that time all the ghosts of the parents' divorce might come out of the basement." Wallerstein has studied 93 children over a generation. Her findings haven't been published in a medical journal, only in her book. Sharon Keating knew all this and promised that would not happen to her children. Sharon Keating is a divorced Mother who says, "One of the things that I did was that I immediately got the kids and I into some counseling." Phil Cowan of the Council on Contemporary Families says, "Can you say that divorce is harmful on the basis of that kind of study?, the answer is no. You can't say anything on causality because everybody has explanations for their lives and what it is that they do." Maybe the next generation more aware of the trauma may be better equipped to handle it.
