Still working through this one:
I needed some words to use to tell my teen-aged daughter and pre-teen son about our divorce. Dr. Emery wrote it is important to tell children in this age who initiated the divorce, and I used a his words, almost to the letter. So far, that has backfired with my daughter, who is very, very angry with me. I still believe the book will be a good reference, but I am ambivalent about taking his advice quite so literally.
Great:
I would recommend this book for anyone that is even thinking of getting a separation or divorce. Some of it seems like common sense, but when you are going through the trials of a divorce or separation, common sense can go out the window.
well done:
This was helpful and provided direction. It provided very straight forward advice during a shaky time. Recommend it.
how to find your way through divorce:
This is a somewhat positive outlook on divorce through the eyes of a professional who considers the children first. He offers practical, helpful advice for setting up things like visition based on the particular aspects of a divorce.
As an Educator, I needed some pointers:
I wanted to find a book that would help me help the children of divorce that I deal with. ParentsDigest carries several summarized books on this subject, and from them I chose this book to purchase. It has helped me understand how to sympathize with their reactions and emotions, and most of all, how to help them get through a very complicated and difficult experience.
