The impact of family problems on children:
When do family problems become negatively
retroactive to children?
- Some may think that a happy family is a family that does not suffer from problems at all, but this is impossible, as some disputes must occur from time to time, and as was previously praised some of these disagreements may be accompanied by positive effects.
- When parents try to solve problems with each other in a calm way, this makes it clear to children that no matter how difficult the problems are, they can be solved, and that the proper ways to solve them have no negative impact on the psychological state of children, quite the contrary.
- But some destructive methods may accompany family problems, making them dangerous and having a great psychological and physical impact on children,
including the following:
- Verbal abuse such as the use of offensive nicknames and insults, and threats of abandonment, which may sometimes be represented by divorce. Physical assault such as hitting, pushing, and even throwing objects.
- Use silent methods such as evasion and withdrawal, or frowning without saying a word or ignoring altogether.
- Give up and make it seem like a solution has been reached.
Effects on children due to family problems:
- Children of all ages, from 6 months to 19 years old, have a clear sensitivity to the conflicts that occur between parents and the methods they use to resolve those disputes, and this leads to an impact on different aspects of their lives and this is evident in several things.
Loss of emotional insecurity:
- There is a relationship between a child's sense of emotional security and the safety and security of the family system within the family, as the devastating problems that occur can make the child see how weak the emotional bonds essential to their survival are.
- This, in turn, may push him to try to end the problems or withdraw completely, which affects his mental health, as these methods, even if they are successful in overcoming difficult family life, remain with him in various aspects, affecting his way of dealing with them.
Negatively affect the relationship between parents and child:
- Family problems have an impact on parents as well, as anxious circumstances make them withdrawn and unable to spend enough time with their children,
- and this makes the quality of the relationship between them weak due to the inability of parents to show warm and reassuring feelings to their children.
Negative impact on health:
- In a 20-year study, in which samples of the anxiety hormone cortisol taken from children in the Caribbean were analyzed, it was found that children who had intercourse with constantly quarreling parents had higher levels of cortisol than children living in quiet home environments.
- As a result, these children felt more tired and sick, preventing them from playing and sleeping well.
- In recent studies, it was found that cortisol levels for some children remain below normal, and this difference in hormone level patterns illustrates the differences in the behaviors that the child used to cope with problems that occur in his home.
- In addition to the impact of problems on some physiological systems such as the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which help us respond to perceived threats,
- there is a clear relationship between growing up in an anxious environment and the health problems they will face in their adult life that may even affect their immunity.
Negative impact on mental health:
Children react to family problems
that affect their psychological and mental health and appear as follows:
- External and behavioral traits such as aggressive behavior, attack, non-compliance with orders, as well as sabotage.
- Internal features as a result of internally addressing negative emotions such as depression, anxiety, withdrawal, and a general state of dissatisfaction.
Negatively affect their future relationships:
- Family problems that occur in childhood are incurred by children even in adulthood and when they leave the house, the quality of the relationship that was between the parents maintains control over their mental health and the way they deal with their husbands in the future,
- so you see them following the steps of their parents in dealing, which leads to double harm to their mental health.
- Their constant exposure to family problems increases the likelihood that they will treat others violently, making it difficult for them to maintain healthy relationships and even be able to trust people in general.
Negatively affect their scientific performance:
- Anxiety caused by family problems affects children's ability to concentrate, making learning harder and creating academic problems at school or university.
- Most children raised in problematic environments have trouble succeeding academically as well as difficulty developing relationships with their peers.
After all. In general, the responsibility for protecting the family
from disintegration lies with the parents, as they are responsible for
maintaining their children and raising them properly;
this is by maintaining the safety of their family from problems by
carrying out their functions and duties towards themselves and their children, and
if it requires separation,
it is under the restrictions of respect for mutual treatment
between parents so that the children do not feel this separation until they
understand the motives for separation.
Wish All a Happy family and a Bright Future
