Abstract
Throughout this report, I focused on the effects that the loss of a parent has on an adolescent during the various stages of adolescent development. Drawing upon research already completed on divorce during adolescence, I speculated on the similarities and differences between losing a parent through divorce or death during the adolescent stages of development. Loss by any means is tragic and life altering. However, as I attempted to illustrate, it was even more defining when encountered during the period of adolescence.
