Divorce and Remarriage

People think that divorce is no big deal, but what they are failing to realize is that divorce doesn't only take a negative effect on the people that are participating in it, but if there are children, they suffer the most.
Children suffer the most because they do not know how to adapt to their parents being apart and taking on different roles inside the family. If there are many children, usually the oldest son takes over the father's role since the father is no longer available for the job. There are many negative effects, mostly emotional that the children suffer from without that male role model and just knowing that the father is no longer a big part of their family makes things worse.
One of the hardest parts of divorce is the effects that come after with remarriage. For some people, getting remarried is a very joyful and good opportunity, but for others it is a hard adjustment. The reason it can be hard is a new family is trying to adjust to a new dad or mom and them taking over the role of their other parent. Also, if one of the children took over the absent parent's role (son takes over father's role or daughter taking over mothers role), then it is a hard adjustment for them to give up that role and go back to taking orders from a parent who hasn't been apart of their family before.
When remarriage occurs, it does take time for the children and spouse to adjust, but it must be done so in the right manner or else the marriage can fail.
