Psychological Violence and Underages in Divorce

The most frequent violence that underage children receive before, during and after a divorce is psychological violence. It means that one parent (or both) "absue" of his/her position or higher mental force for various purposes: revenge against the other parent, to denigrate the parent with less "child time", to get material benefits (house, money, custody), wishes to control of the children, other motives and/or pathologies.

The abuse may be done in a premeditated and strategic way or in an uncontrolled and impulsive one. That violence has a high destructive potential inside the underage that receive it. A fundamental difference between physical and psychological violence is that the first one is easily observable (who, when) while the second one you can receive without realizing it with stronger and chronic damage.

Receiving this violence in childhood or adolescence increases the possibility of even serious physical and mental pathologies and most certanly get worse the quality of life. An abused, disoriented, humiliated and disarmed mind not only loses control of the victim’s life, which makes the victim fall into depression, but it also causes him to lose control of some vital functions, such as glandular and immune functions, to name but a few.

You can get out of this kind of violence just as well as you would out of any other type, but you will have to face greater difficulty in trying to find out WHO and WHEN.
