In a pre-divorce period, it is possible that a child would experience an adverse effect on them and this could or would result in inflated risk and development during and after a marriage conflict. With extreme spousal conflicts before divorce this can have its effects on children. Marriages that have intense conflict between the parents could cause a negative impact on the future development of the child. However, couples that are able to work out their differences the child can experience a more negative impact on them. In addition, when the negative outcomes emerge in the pre-divorce period, it is possible that a positive about face can occur during the in-divorce period. Some consequences of parental divorce can include an elevated risk due to relocation around or during the time of the divorce. This can result in a child visiting another parent on the weekends. The child could be impacted with high emotional distress, economic hardship and the acceptance of making friends at a new school. During the in-divorce period divorced children can show a decline in making or maintaining friendships this can stem from trust issues. “This can also result in difficulties in expressing feelings, opinions and ideas in a pro-social way.” (Kim, 2015) Furthermore, couples that remain in marriage the child can struggle with” anxiety, loneliness, sadness and low self esteem while their parents are in the in-divorce stage.” (Kim, 2015). On the other hand, when parents notice that the children are coping with the divorce, they have more tolerant of the child 's ability to cope with the divorce.
