The Best Books About Surviving Divorce
Surviving Divorce & Separation: Children as Pawns: Children in the Dark:
When couples divorce, stress strikes both spouses. Your self-control may remain, but your stress will increase. Step away from your role as a spouse and parent. Step into your child's world, try on his or her shoes in hopes of understanding what he or she is feeling.
You may consider telling your children that while you will no longer all live together, you will work things out in their best interest and continue to be a family. They will accept your splitting up much better if they feel they still have you both, even if it is under separate roofs. If they can still see and talk with the two of you as often as possible and continue with each of you in the roles they've assigned you in their hearts, they will get through this with you. And, please, don't let them hear you say anything bad about their mom or dad.
Reality Check

Divorce Tip: # 24 An uncontested divorce case is a divorce that does not require a trial. The disputes, if any, are resolved by the couple without the need of the court's decisions. This does not mean that the court does not have a role. All divorces must have some kind of judicial proceeding before you are issued a legal divorce decree. Sponsored by: Pension Appraisers, Inc.
