Abstract:

More and more children are experiencing changes brought about by their parents’ divorce with the continued increase in the divorce rate. The proportion of children in divorced families is increasing and the qualities developed during adolescence will have an important impact on their future development. The various aspects of the marital status of parents aff ecting their children, why these eff ects are aff ected, and the ways in which they can control are all necessary for research. Based on the 2012, 2014, and 2016 data of CFPS, we studied the infl uence of Chinese young parents’ divorce on the development of their young children’s academic, psychological, behavioral, and social aspects. This paper demonstrates the diff erences in the performance of children in the complete family and divorced families by comparing the data of each indicator. This can further analyze the impact of parental divorce on the development of children. The results showed that there was no signifi cant diff erence in the performance of children between single-parent divorced families and children in the full family on most indicators. Only a few indicators of divorced families do not perform as well as complete families. In addition, the marital status of parents does have a long-term impact on children. However, the accuracy of the research data needs to be further confi rmed. It is to be convinced that the issue of children born out of marital problems needs to be taken seriously by society.
