If you're going through a divorce, The Nemours Foundation suggests you:
- Encourage your kids to talk as openly as they can about their feelings, positive or negative.
- Don't bad mouth your estranged spouse in front of your children, no matter how angry you are.
- Avoid using your kids as messengers or go-betweens.
- If there's someone new in your life, expect resistance from your children.
- Seek out support groups, counselling, and friends in similar situations.
