[Family therapy in divorce].

A multi-generational approach to family therapy with divorce families is presented. Parents and children of such families are faced--with special problems during the phases of ambivalence, divorce and post-divorce. Their problems require varying focal points during therapeutic treatment. It focuses on arriving at a decision, finding constructive solutions for practical and emotional problems caused by the divorce ("psychic divorce" and parental cooperation concerning custody and education of the children) as well as supporting individuation and re-orientations. The main aim of therapeutic treatment is to alter the underlying pathogenic patterns of relationships and conflict-solving in order to prevent its repetition in a new partnership or in the next generation. Family therapy with divorce families is complicated to a high degree by aggressiveness, destructivity and resistance against working on central conflicts which serve to avoid feelings of anxiety, shame, guilt, anger and mourning.

The role of behavior therapists in child custody cases.

Given awareness of research, a focus on the present, sensitivity to multiple life events, and preference for active interventions that characterize the social learning tradition, behavior therapists are well equipped to expand their work into the child custody context. However, therapists need to be aware of the multiple potential roles they may be asked to play in child custody cases. All therapists must make clear whether they are functioning as an evaluator, a mediator, or a therapist. These roles overlap somewhat in function, and on occasion the same psychologist may successfully fulfill more than one role. However, the wise course of action is for the therapist to define a single role from the outset of the case and to remain in that one role throughout. Although a social learning background is an excellent starting point, therapy with child custody cases requires specialized knowledge about the emotional, practical, and legal aspects of divorce. Self-education is an especially important precursor to working in the child custody context, because perhaps the single most important intervention with divorcing and divorced families is to educate them. Given the lack of institutionalized guidance on how to handle both the emotional and the practical aspects of divorce, families often turn to therapists for direction. To provide such direction, therapists must educate themselves about the various emotional, social, practical, and legal aspects of divorce. We hope that this chapter is but an initial step that the reader will take toward that goal.

[Effect of marked obesity on the emotional status of children].

Fifty children with overweight exceeding 50% of the expected weight were studied for establishing the occurrence of emotional disturbances caused by lack of acceptance by peers. Obese children were found to suffer often from discrimination by their schoolmates which was, in some degree, connected with their low fitness. This may lead to various emotional disturbances requiring even psychotherapeutic measures.
