Understanding the Emotional Impact of Divorce on Children
Children often feel confused, anxious, guilty, and profoundly sad during a divorce. Younger children may mistakenly believe the divorce is their fault, causing emotional distress and behavioral issues like bedwetting or struggles in school. Grief from losing the stability of their family unit deeply affects their emotional health.
Imagine a young child who once thrived at school suddenly becoming withdrawn, unable to articulate their anxiety and sadness.

Helping Teens Navigate the Emotional Challenges of Divorce
Teenagers face unique emotional challenges during divorce, including anger, betrayal, grief, and guilt. Divorce can significantly disrupt identity formation, leading to isolation, risky behaviors, or declining academic performance. The profound grief teens feel often goes unnoticed.
Consider a teenager withdrawing from sports or friendships due to overwhelming feelings of sadness after their parents separate.
