Clip description

The Exeter Family Study examined health, school performance, social life, behaviour and self-esteem in children of divorced parents. Dr Rosemary Dunlop of Macquarie University says that research shows that children successfully ‘put it behind them.’ Sister Aileen Shanahan of Aquinas College counters this, saying that she thinks there is a lot of unresolved grief in the community.
