The center provided counseling and education for divorcing couples and their children.[1] In addition, the center conducted a variety of research pertaining to divorce and the family.[3] Judith Wallerstein’s three best-selling books about children and divorce were: Second Chances, The Unexpected Legacy of Divorce, and What About the Kids.[1] In 1995, she published a book titled The Good Marriage: How and Why Love Lasts, which was about making marriage succeed. Wallerstein received many awards including: the Distinguished Teaching Award from the University of California, The Koshland Award in Social Welfare from the San Francisco Foundation, Commendation from the State of California Senate Rules Subcommittee, the Rene Spitz Lectureship from the Denver Psychoanalytic society, election to Who’s Who in American Science, the Dale Richmond Award of the American Academy of Pediatrics, etc. ResearchWallerstein’s career was centered around a 25-year-long longitudinal study, the "California Children of Divorce Study," investigating the effects that divorce has on families.[1][6][4] She began her study in 1971 with Joan B. Kelly.[1][6] She followed 131 children between the ages of 3 and 18 from 60 divorced families in Marin County, California for 25 years, with intensive interviews conducted every 5 years [6] From her research Wallerstein found that only 40% of children from divorce actually marry.[5] She discovered that the effects of divorce are more long lasting than most assume.[1] The age of child at the time of the divorce really matters,[1] the largest impact occurs during the period where the child of divorce is a young adult wanting a romantic relationship but afraid of failure.[4] Wallerstein also found that the quality of post-divorce life is crucial for the children.[1] In addition, she found that rates of financial support for college decrease after a divorce due to the large expense of the divorce itself.[4] CriticismsAlthough Judith Wallerstein had many allies and a number of best-selling books, she also had critics. Some criticized her for the families she studied that were all middle class and the parents were all well-educated, Wallerstein was criticized for not having a wider variety.[6] Wallerstein's study exclusively examined middle-class Californians whose participants were pre-selected for therapy and psycho-analysis. She influenced a California court on child relocation, and was criticized by Richard A. Gardner.[7] Feminists felt that Wallerstein was trying to encourage women to stay in bad marriage and discouraging divorce.[5] Wallerstein defended herself, saying that she wanted them to be aware of what their children would be going through after divorce so that they could better support them. She was not saying “don’t get divorced.” But rather, if you are going to split, prepare the children with an honest appraisal of how the decision will disrupt the parent's schedules, and the impact that divorce will have on school, play time, shopping, possibly their friendships, and don't pretend it's no big deal to the kids. Don't lie to them, you will undermine their trust in you, and you will lose the chance to stay included in their lives when they grow up knowing you were not reliable.[6] Partial bibliography
