Causes of Divorce and its Effects on the Socialization of Children: A Case Study of Tehsil Daggar District Buner
This study examines the viewpoints of persons who have recently divorced to elucidate the causes of marital dissolution and their effects on children's socialization. In-depth interviews demonstrate that several causes lead to marriage breakdown, including opposing financial interests, adultery, inadequate communication, and familial pressure. These situations may significantly undermine a marriage's emotional and psychological basis, perhaps leading to strife and divorce. This study also examines the influence of divorce on children's social and academic relationships. Study indicates that post-divorce children often experience behavioural changes, diminished self-esteem, and mood swings that disrupt their social interactions and academic performance. Divorce parents use different strategies to mitigate these effects; some struggle with childrearing, while others have emotional and communication challenges. The research indicates that reunification is essential for familial support and the welfare of children, as well as for robust assistance and interventions to aid youth in addressing challenges stemming from parental divorce.
