Dealing with Change
Children can adapt to change and you can make transitions easier for them.
Telling Your Kids
Make it clear that it's not their fault, they will be taken care of, and you will always love them. Avoid blaming the other parent.
Your Kids Will Have Questions
Listen carefully to their concerns, treat their questions seriously, and answer their questions as honestly and openly as you can.
Helping with Changes
Many changes are out of your control, and your unconditional love and patience are what will get your kid through this transition.
New Partners and Blended Families
Be cautious and thoughtful about introducing new people into their lives.
Parents' Responsibilities
Being mindful of your parental responsibilities now will guide you in making thoughtful decisions that impact your children's wellbeing.
