This study addresses the influence of recent parental divorce on contact and affective relations between 485 white young adults, ages 18 to 23, and their parents. Although custody was not a factor in most of these cases, findings similar to these revealed in studies of young children with maternal custody emerged. Young adults from divorced families had less contact with their fathers, and daughters of divorce reported less intimacy in relation to their fathers than did their intact-family peers. Relations with mothers did not vary between the two groups. In addition, feelings about a given parent were strongly correlated with contact with that parent in divorced but not in intact families, suggesting that parental divorce is associated with weakened obligation, and that family relationships may become more voluntary after divorce.
