How do children of divorce perform in school after the divorce?

A bit or a lot more poorly. If their full attention got them their usual grades and now the divorce has distracted them, it’s no wonder there’s a downturn. If your stability vanished because of someone else’s actions, you’d struggle at your job, too. Think of everything in your kids’ lives that might be affected by your divorce and then insert conditions in your divorce agreement to address each one.
