Socket - Packets separated once send to server

Question

I'm trying to send sockets to a server using Java:

_socket   = new Socket(host, port);
_writer   = new DataOutputStream(_socket.getOutputStream());

public void send(String data){
    _writer.writeBytes( data );
    _writer.flush();
}

I want to send data as a same Packet, and sometimes it's divide into multiples one. I don't know if it's clear enough, I'm missing some vocabulary.

If I send:

"0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

The server can possibly receive the data into 3 packets :

1. "0123456"
2. "789abcdefghijklmno"
3. "pqrstuvwxyz"

Is there a way to don't separate the data you send into multiple packets ?

BufferedOutputStream seems to fix the problem.
