About this ebook
Inevitably divorce is difficult for children. There is no way around this. But even the very youngest children need a way to understand and make sense of how their family is changing. Author Emily Menendez-Aponte offers a starting point to begin explaining divorce to your child. She helps explain to children that divorce is not their fault, that it’s normal to feel upset and scared and confused, and that it’s good to get all these feelings out.
