Problem:
How can I make notes with bullet points in this paragraph? School-age children understand the concepts of "divorce" and "separation" better than younger children, but they, too, are usually shocked, worried, and sad when they find out that their parents are separating. Six- to 8-year-olds are particularly upset about the loss of their father and they experience anxiety and depression. At 8 to 10 years of age, children are more likely to get angry-about the divorce, about moving away from their friends, about their parents' suffering, and about custody problems, such as living in two homes. Many children of this age ruminate about the divorce: One study found that 40 percent of these children spent time thinking about the divorce at least once a day-even a year afterward (Weyer & Sandler, 1998). Many children at this age suffer psychosomatic stress symptoms-headaches, vomiting, dizziness, sleep problems, and inability to concentrate (Bergman et al., 1987). As one college student who was in fifth grade when her parents split up recalled (Clarke-Stewart & Brentano, 2005, p. 115):"My parents' separation was the most devastating event in my life. I remember getting sick after I was informed of my parents' plans. I was sick for a week; all I did was sleep and vomit." Need Assignment Help?
