Divorce and Your Family
There are few events in a young person?s life as
destabilizing as divorce. What once felt solid and dependable is suddenly torn
apart, and any sense of security and stability is destroyed. In addition to
feelings of guilt and sorrow, practical questions are suddenly raised. Which
parent will I live with? How will we make ends meet? Am I supposed to side with
one parent? What if a parent remarries and a stepparent and stepsiblings enter
the picture? This resource extends a helping hand and empathetic counsel to
any teen in this position. It is full of great advice for coming to terms with
the divorce, making a successful transition to the new normal of two households,
and making room in one's life for extended stepfamilies.
