The gripping BBC drama Dr. Foster returned on our screens earlier this month for a second series.<\/p>\n
The new season focuses on life after divorce and the hostility and anger that can continue for many years. Dr. Gemma Foster and her former husband Simon Foster separated 2 years ago however the second series sees Simon Foster return to live nearby so that he can spend more time with their 15-year-old son Tom.<\/p>\n
Separation has a huge impact on the children of the family as evidenced in the second series as Tom is constantly caught in the middle of his parents\u2019 acrimony. This has had a negative impact on Tom and resulted in him being excluded from school for punching his friend and sexually assaulting a girl at a party after getting drunk.<\/p>\n
Although it is a tough time for all involved, whatever the cause of the separation, it is vital that children do not feel like they have to choose between their parents. It is also incredibly important that parents put on a \u2018united front\u2019 and agree a joint approach in how they should deal with schooling matters and prioritise their child\u2019s emotional wellbeing.<\/p>\n
Sadly, parents often use their children against one another during separation and this has a long-term impact on children in both their personal development and their relationship with their parents.<\/p>\n
