Divorce ... Hope for famillies
When kids first learn their parents are getting a divorce many feel it's the end of the world. And for children and teens it is the end of their world as they knew it.
How kids get through their parents' divorce has everything to do with how their parents cope. If parents use their kids to get to their spouse the kids are the ones who will suffer. If parents can look beyond their anger and pain they can help their children through this tumultuous time in their lives.
Most kids who learn their parents are going to divorce believe it's their fault. If they had only been a better kid, they think, then their parents wouldn't have fought and they'd still be together. It is important that parents let their kids know that the divorce is not their fault.
Coaching can help families through this most difficult time.
Does your teen have something to say?
If he does, listen.
