DIVORCE

In the News: Judith Wallerstein has died at the age of 90. In 1971, she studied children from divorced families and interviewed them every five years over the course of 25 years. Wallerstein’s findings detailed the consequences of divorce and she noted that, for many of the children, the negative effects continued into adulthood.
