Our Generation at Risk: Tale of Disintegrated Families’ Children in Areas of Pakistan- A Review

Abstract

Constitutional Protection has been given to marriages and families throughout the world, to give healthy milieu for nurturing and fostering positive attitude among children. Unfortunately, lack of patience, an absence of compromise, prevalent greed and other such reasons has increased matrimony challenges throughout the world and has shown a rise in divorce rates. The purpose of this paper is to find out consequences faced by children of disintegrated families in Pakistan and to suggest remedies to overcome these concerns among children. Conclusions are made on the basis of narrative literature review to highlight consequences and solutions. Increase in divorce rate is also getting common in Pakistan and has brought poor development in children’s growth, adding negative factors in children’s personalities. The results are worse if domestic violence and continuous conflicts amongst parents take place. Such children develop psychopathological disorders which continue throughout their lives. Matrimony challenges have influenced dropout rate throughout the world including Pakistan and have resulted in the decline in literacy rate in a new generation. Moreover, in the case of parental separation, kids have additional freedom to indulge in social networking sites, leading to the attainment of undesirable characters in their personalities, which later surges into acts of delinquency and crime. In order to overcome such weaknesses developed in children due to lack of parental attention, some remedial strategies such as adults’ supervision, counseling session, strong policies, financial assistance, government support etc are suggested in later part of this research.
