Divorce can make life difficult for kids. Your parents are not getting a divorce because of you or your siblings. If you are experiencing stress because of your parents’ divorce, which is understandable, do not hesitate to discuss what you are feeling with your parents and other trusted adults in your life, such as a grandparent or school counselor.
Kids should expect at least some change with a divorce, such as living in two homes, or maybe moving and having to go to a new school. Divorced parents might have to cut back on spending, so kids might have to adjust. Kids might also eventually have a stepparent or stepsiblings, which takes time to adjust to.
