We also found that mother’s pre-divorce sensitivity buffered the overall effect of divorce on children’s externalizing problems reported by teachers. It also decreased children’s divorce-related internalizing problems reported by teachers and internalizing and externalizing problems reported by mothers. These findings extend the results of previous research and the current study showing that good parenting after divorce has positive effects for children by suggesting that mothers’ good parenting before the divorce also predicts better and more rapid adjustment for children.
