Kids of quarelling parents 'prone to school problem'

Parents be-aware. Your tiny quarrels too may spoil your kid.

A new study revealed that children who worry a lot about conflicts between their parents are more likely to show symptoms of attention problems.

An international team from Rochester University, Notre Dame University and Syracuse University has based its findings on an analysis of a group of 216 six-year-old children, their parents and their teachers over a three-year period.

Researchers found that children who had concerns about how their parents got along had more attention problems a year after the concern was first identified, the latest edition of the Child Development journal reported.
