The research shows that
i)reduction in conflict b/w the parents is imperative for the child
ii)there should be lots of contact with both parents
If these two things alone can happen, children have a very good chance of transitioning out of a nuclear home and growing up happy and healthy.
So one of the "things she needs..." is her Dad. Too bad so sad Dad is not being Dad.
