dc.description.abstractThe family institution, which is the basic foundation of every society, is being threatened by high rate of divorce globally. The literature and popular media are replete with statistics about the rise in the rate of divorce and the decreasing stability of the nuclear family. It is believed that this situation often results into an unstable society and even destroys its form and moral standards. Consequently the adolescents who are raised in such broken homes are more likely to drop out of school, to use drug, to have teen births, to have illegitimate children and to be poorer than their counterparts whose natal home is intact. ..en_US
