简介
This study aims to investigate the impact of parental divorce on children's character development in a city in Indonesia. This used a case study qualitative method. Data was collected through direct observation, and in-depth interviews with divorced parents, children, and religious court staff. Written materials were also analyzed to find out the divorce cases handled at the city religious court. This study found that the causes of divorce are included economic limitation, domestic violence, betrayal, and longer conflict. The impact of the divorce on children's character development included unstable children's emotions, such as stress and mental pressure, dropping out of education, decrease children's confidence and a lack of trust of the children to their parents. However, this study also found that the divorce also caused a positive impact on the children's character in which the children become more independent and stronger in their lives. We suspect the divorce might have caused some children to build positive perceptions from their painful life. As such they take it as a positive life experience and then caused them to become more stronger and independent. Future research should focus on why some children perceive their parent's divorce as a negative experience, while others accept it as a positive life experience and use it as a factor to be independent and stronger.
