Answer to Question 2

 Intrafamily conflict is a common experience in many American families.
 The link between parental conflict and delinquency was established more than 50 years ago when Nye found that a child's perception of his or her parents' marital happiness was a significant predictor of delinquency.
 Contemporary studies support these early findings that children who grow up in maladapted homes and witness discord or violence later exhibit emotional disturbance and behavior problems.
 There seems to be little difference between the behavior of children who merely witness intrafamily violence and those who are its victims.
 A recent study found that children who experienced any form of family violence were more likely to act out than those who avoided relational conflict.
 It was also found that children who experienced indirect types of family violence, such as exposure to the physical abuse of a sibling, were more likely to externalize behavior than children who experienced direct maltreatment and physical abuse.
 Research shows that children in both broken homes and high-conflict intact homes are worse off than children in low-conflict, intact families.
 However, even when parents are divorced, children who maintain attachments to their parents are less likely to engage in delinquency than those who are alienated and detached.
 Student responses will vary.
