When young people struggle, parents' divorce may be the cause

The increased conflict between parents has led to a rise in the number of children and young people seeking help from Ensi- ja turvakotien liitto's (ETKL) divorce services. According to experts, parents and professionals should pay more attention to young people in divorced families.

In 2022, more than 4,000 people received help from ETKL's 22 member associations' divorce services throughout Finland.
