sorry that your going through this.. but u'll be fine, it hurts for awhile but just like most things time heals all.. just because they will no longer be together doesnt mean they love u any less, u'll learn to cope with it and you'll get through.. its hard at times, but there can be some positives about it if you have the right outlook on it so try to find the silver lining in what u can.. try not to dwell in what u dont have.. dwell in what u do have.. 2 parents that love you..How can i cope with my parents divorcing?
Wow, This is very hard to take and I am so sorry you have to go through it. First of all understand your feeling matter and you have a right to feel angry, hurt, sad, depressed and lost. You hole world is just turning upside down and you have very little control over this situation. Be up front with your parents tell them how you feel, and if they don't get it right it down and make them read it. Showing your feeling through behaviour will only get you in trouble. Be open and honest with your parents. You, can ask to see someone to talk to about how to cope with this. Do remember your parents love you and will always love you. But they are just not happy together. You, are still the greatest treasures they have in all the world.


Allow yourself to feel, be honest and ask for more help to handle this situation. You, can make it through this and you will be able to with the painful things better.





I wish you peace and happiness

divorce sucks for kids trust me i no i was one when my parents got one, but i can honestly say that them being peacful in their own homes is better then the constant arguing and hostility. you need to understand they are doing this to better themselves and not to hurt anyone. there is counseling for children of divorced parents personaly i didnt feel it helped the best thing to do is just let your parents no that the situation is upsetting to you. that you wont take sides with them and when your with one of them you dont want to hear the negitivity they may have to say about the other and they should respect that. just put yourself out there. in ways to cope confide in a friend or another close family member like your grandma or an aunt. having someone to talk to is the best thing i can say
Divorce is hard on your parents, but it's probably much harder on you. It can be very scary when everything in your world gets flipped around, and I'm really sorry to hear you have to deal with this.





Your parents' divorce is not your fault and is probably going to be better for all of you in the long run. It doesn't change how they feel about you, only that they've made a decision that their marriage is going to end. It is going to be painful for you to deal with, but make sure you talk to BOTH of your parents about how you're feeling and how this affects you.





From a mom's point of view, the hardest thing for me when I separated from my son's father was having to explain to my son why dad wasn't going to live with us anymore. I'm sure your parents are very concerned with how this is (and will continue to) affect you.





I'm sure your parents are going to want you to see a counselor if you need someone else to talk to that can help you through this. It doesn't mean you're weak or crazy - and a counselor may be a great chance for you to have someone else who will be there to listen, too.





It's going to take some adjustment, and there are going to be other things that come up over time, like if one of your parents starts dating again. Be open and honest with them about how you feel and don't try to bottle it up or lash out at them like they've done something to deliberately hurt you. Eventually, all the chaos will settle down and life does go on, even if it goes on a little differently than what you've been used to.





Hang in there and don't be afraid to talk about how you're feeling or ask for help if you need it.
So sorry you're going through this. I know it sucks. But I promise you that eventually you'll be fine.





Here are some things to do:


1. spend time with friends. get support from other people you know who's parents have divorced. join a kids support group if you can find one near you.


2. remember that this has nothing to do with you. it's between them. don't take it personally. it's not your fault.


3. take care of yourself. remember to acknowledge your pain, but still do stuff that makes you happy and keeps you healthy. allow yourself to go through your feelings honestly. do things that feel good. find time to enjoy yourself.
It's a good thing you'll get double the pocket money!
