Research for Documentary People do not really seem to care how divorce parents can really affect a kid’s life. Kids go through tremendous pain and agony seeing their parent’s fights and argue for nothing. Parents sometimes care because they don’t want their kid seeing them like that because kids tend to grow up and do what their see their parents do. Kids tend to build up stress and not let their feelings show until it gets too much to handle some kids tend to build up suicidal thoughts because they feel like nobody is listening to them or they just don’t care which in this case it’s a do and don’t situation. As we all know divorce is a big issue in the United States. Between 43% and 50% of marriages in the U.S. end in divorce says the (Census Bureau in 2004). It also says that almost about 50 % of the children will experience their parents’ divorce (National Center of Health Statistics in 2008). Given the large number of families affected by divorce each year parents, clinicians, and policymakers alike are concerned with understanding how experiencing parental divorce affects their children. The first extreme position holds that the long-term effects of divorce on children are quite debilitating and that children carry a lasting negative burden and hurt years after their parents’ divorce I terms of mind and mental health and interpersonal relationships. As they grow this hurt and pain tend to carry out in their relationships long after they have grown up and lived on their own for a while. Some relationships can be abusive and some relationships can be a lot of fighting from both sides. As a result of this what children see and hear when their little between their parents is what they will do when they grow up. If their parents had an abusive relationship then they will grow up and be abusive but there is always a solution to this problem. We know as a community and as a state we can’t stop everything from happening but we can come together and help generate ways to keep things that we can help from getting out of hand like for instance the statistics shows that children tend to grow up and do what their parents so if one parent is abusive then their children will be abusive in relationships so we can help make classes where people and children can help come and get their feelings out and just talk about what they see in their parents relationship. Building a relationship in a family is one of the key factors to having a successful family. It helps the family builds trust and communication which causes less stress between the families. Also if his family is not really close it tends to affect their children in everyday life such as school and social life. During the past several decades, the benefits of parents' and other family members' involvement in children's education have been well-documented. Although it isn't the only factor in improving student learning, 30 years of research has consistently linked family involvement to higher student achievement, better attitudes toward school, lower dropout rates, and increased community support for education, as well as many other positive outcomes for students, families, and schools (Henderson & Mapp, 2002). When families are involved in learning, the research shows, "students achieve more, regardless of socioeconomic status, ethnic/racial background, or the parents' education level" (Antunez, 2000). "In the best of all possible worlds," write Adams and Christenson (2000), "the family-school relationship would be based not only on two-way communication, cooperation, and coordination, but also on collaboration". The 2001 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), No Child Left behind (NCLB), signals a move in that direction. The inclusion of several new provisions related to family involvement reflect the gradual shift in U.S. educational policy and practice from viewing parents as important players to full partners in the formal education of their child. Parents do not see our hurt and our pain but the world can see it through our social life and through school. It affects everywhere you think it won’t. We are human just like our parents and we have feelings just like our parents.
