SOCIO-PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT FOR CHILDREN IN SITUATIONS OF PARENTAL LOSS OR DIVORCE

Abstract

The author presents an overview of the psychological challenges children face in situations of parental loss or divorce and highlights the need for timely socio-psychological support. Attention is paid to key components of effective intervention, including crisis counseling, emotional expression, and family therapy. The study emphasizes integrative, child-centered approaches and discusses barriers such as stigma, lack of resources, and institutional gaps. Future prospects include scalable programs, digital tools, and culturally adapted practices to improve support systems.
