Separation is a common relationship phenomenon in the community today. Despite the changes in community attitudes and family patterns, separation still represents a major life stressor for the individuals involved. This position statement addresses factors that promote child wellbeing after parental separation.
The APS takes this issue seriously and sees it as a significant public health issue. Psychologists can contribute practice skills and knowledge of prevention approaches to separation, mediation of conflict, and social and practical supports for families in transition.
