October 31, 2008, Newsletter Issue #284: Talking to Kids About Divorce

Tip of the Week

Itīs best if both parents can be present when kids are told about a parental divorce. Kids need to hear a consistent story about why their parents are divorcing. Give them concrete information about where each parent will be living, where the children will be staying, and where they will be going to school. Make it clear that the divorce is not their fault, and try your best to answer their questions honestly.
