Broken home or family division has a negative impact on family members, especially children. This study aims to understand the psychological impact of broken home on adolescent children's mental health. The research used qualitative case study method with in-depth interview as data collection method. The subject was a 17-year-old teenage girl from a broken home family. The results showed a change in the subject's behavior after her parents separated. The subject, who was initially closed, is now more open to one of his parents, allegedly because he felt free from pressure before his parents separated. This is in accordance with the theory of behaviorism, where behavior is influenced by stimulus and response. The broken home stimulus gave rise to a response in the form of behavioral changes in the subject. The psychological impact experienced by the subject also goes through five stages, namely denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Currently the subject has reached the acceptance stage, where the subject has been able to accept the reality that his parents are broken home. In conclusion, there were changes in the subject's behavior due to a broken home, but in the end the subject was able to reach the stage of acceptance of his family's condition, although it took a long process to achieve this. It is hoped that this research can enrich the understanding of the psychological impact of broken homes on adolescents.
