Due to demographic changes, there have been changes in the family structure: the number of extra-marital cohabitaions increased, the number of marriages is declining and the number of divorces increased. Because of the great importance of marriage for the individuals and the society, the research of divorce and its impact on the family is needed. Divorce is an extremely stressful life event and the level of stress increases if the level of conflict during the divorce is high between the ex partners. Parents, due to divorce stress and their conflicts, sometimes aren't aware of their behaviour and how that behaviour harms the children so they are not able to achieve their parental role efficiently. Disagreement between parents after the divorce impact on parental relationship and indirectly on children and their development. In those situations children, who are in the middle of parental conflict, suffer the most. The focus of this paper is on children and the consequences of parental conflicts on children as well as the options of resolving conflict for the purpose of protecting the children. The goal of this paper is to show forms of parental care and co-parenting after the divorce and also to show the consequences of parents' conflict on children. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to better understanding of the impact of high conflict divorce on children and to show how to prevent and solve conflicts among parents.
