The Opposite of Tidy (Blog Post #1)

The following link, is a report on the social issues that affect children and their family.

 
 A big topic that was discussed upon was about divorce. The reason I chose this report is because divorce is major thing that was brought up in the book, The Opposite of Tidy, and this report discusses mostly on how children are affected by divorce and what they go through. It talks about how divorce has a major impact on children in many ways. For example children may feel as if they are the cause of the divorce, they may feel rejected, and not loved. They also may feel that they are alone. Some children may be disloyal to their father’s or mother’s new spouse.

The same thing happens in the book, The Opposite of Tidy, Junie sometimes feels rejected throughout the book because her parents don’t really look after her that well. She feels alone at times, and not loved. Junie also is disloyal towards her father’s ‘girlfriend.’

In conclusion, the report really relates to my book, and the social issue that is shown in the book.
