Abstract
The article examines the factors leading to children’s deviant behaviour. It is shown that one of these factors is parents’ divorce. Deviant behaviour evoked by parents divorce can become apparent in different ways. Smaller children can show regress in their development, e.g. night enures, luck of self-direction, etc. Children of school age lose progress in their studies, discipline, they become aggressive, and they can escape from home, co thefts, acts of hooliganism. They have frequently psychosomatic disorders, such as stomach pain, headache, insomnia, phobias, total excitement and locomotory disinhibition or vice versa, depression, apathy. But divorced parents understand rarely that their child’s behaviour or health worsening is connected with their divorce. Article discovers the mechanisms of deviations appearance in children’s behaviour, particularly influence of melancholic, guilty and fear feelings, which arise as the result of basic social need (need of security) deprivation. Article discovers the mechanism of this deprivation during parents’ divorce. Article determines the conditions that allow family to prevent children’s deviant behaviour during parents’ divorce. Article shows that child’s negative feelings can be compensated by accurate parents’ policy during divorce, beginning from a message to their child about divorce. Parents must understand that their divorce has buried their family conflicts, and they must co-operate anew to upbring children and to help them to go thought parents’ divorce.It is proved that former couple seldom can provide normal functioning of divorced family without assistance, so, the psychological assistance is necessary.
