Divorce harms Children

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

An estimated 1.3 million children live apart from their natural parents.

These children are statistically ten times more likely to be abused or neglected and twice as likely to have a mental health problem.

200 children go through the family law system every day.
Up to 200 children will have their fathers removed from their day to day lives.

There is a divorce every 10 minutes in this country.

Young separated men are 10 times more likely to die by suicide than through road accident…..

The suicide rate among separated men is more than double the rate of contracting aids.
