A member asked:
Please explain what do you think are the documented side effects of parents fighting on the kids/teens?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Psychological scars: It is never helpful for a child to be in a situation where the parents are fighting a lot. This will cause psychological scars and the child will not be sure how to react. It may affect child's relationships, school performance, drive to accomplishment. It can expose them to violence and affect how they interact with parents and others. Consider familly counseling
