Divorce

What is Divorce?

A divorce occurs when a husband and wife decide they can't live together anymore and no longer want to be married. This is never an easy decision. Often they spend a long time trying to solve problems before deciding to divorce. Sometimes the husband and wife just can't fix the problems and decide that a divorce is the only solution. Remember it is never your fault. If your parents are getting divorced it is because of their own reasons and problems. When your mom and dad get divorced, it often feels like your whole world has turned upside down. You are often very scared and are not sure what is going to happen to you and the rest of your family.

When your parents fight it usually doesn’t mean that your parents don't love each other anymore or that they're getting a divorce. Even people who love each other fight sometimes. When you fight with your siblings, parents and friends, it doesn’t mean that you don’t love them anymore! Most importantly, speak to your parents about your feelings.
