Family has changed from being a valuable unit of socioeconomic makeup and a fundamental axis on which the economy rested, to being one more element among the many that the State organizes and frames for a better performance of its members. In Bolivia, according to the National Statistics Institute (INE), 45668 marriages are registered as an annual average. However, the percentage of registered divorces compared to marriage data has been on the rise from 2010 to 2019, exponentially, probably due to new legislation. We allow ourselves to think that, of every 10 children, 4 of them will be raised in a family of divorced parents and the history of the emotional process that divorce implies.
Considering this context around the reduced times that children have for emotional training during their first years (0-3 years), and considering the trend of escalation of the data in relation to marriage records, the questions: “What are the emotional effects on children who will be part of a divorce story?” And “What will be the cognitive-emotional effect in these children when they reach adulthood?”
Therefore, it is important that this issue is researched in the Bolivian reality with statistics based on the data that can be provided by the judicial instances and the documentary investigation of the processes in judicial courts, in such a way that it allows to understand what the difficulties and the times in which couples have passed are, being able to generate a prevention plan and prior support for vulnerable couples to these events.
