Publisher's Synopsis
This book arose from the need to offer qualified psychosocial counselling to appropriately assist judges in custody litigation, with the aim of safeguarding the best interests of the child and adolescent population. As such, the object of study is the repercussions on parental educational styles correlated with the conflictual dynamics typical of destructive divorce and the probable consequences for the development of the children involved in these proceedings. In this way, the aim is to understand the transformations in the exercise of parenting in the midst of conflicting relational-communicational dynamics and their respective consequences on the developmental trajectory of the offspring. Although there is a vast amount of literature and research on destructive divorce and parenting styles, there is still a dichotomy between the two theoretical models, with very few attempts to correlate them. Furthermore, the vast majority of studies on parenting styles are based on a linear, positivist perspective. This book demonstrates the possibility of working with these theoretical contributions through a systemic, dynamic, processual and complex conception.
