Divorced Families: Meeting the Challenge of Divorce and Remarriage

by Constance R. Ahrons Ph.D., Roy H. Rodgers Ph.D.

Overview

“The first book to approach divorce as a state of normal adult development, beautifully analyzed and explained.” —Paul Bohannan, Ph.D.

After divorce a family does not cease to exist; the marital relationship may have ended, but the family relationships continue, particularly if there are children involved. This book describes some of the expectable difficulties for couples at different life cycle stages—those with young children, childless couples, and midlife and aging couples—and offers guidance for making the most of the transition from separation to remarriage. Readers are likely to find the case studies and descriptions of four types of divorced spouses—“perfect pals,” “cooperative colleagues,” “angry associates,” and “fiery foes”—particularly helpful.
