divorce advice kids

No offense, but it's really hard to read what you have written - are you deeply depressed and want to get out of your marriage? Are you looking for advice about your depression or about how to get a divorce? If it's about divorce, you should talk with a lawyer.

I recommend the book Difficult Questions Kids Ask and Are Afraid to Ask About Divorce by Dr. Meg Schneide. This is the best guide to helping kids through divorce I have found to date. You can also help your child adjust by seeking the help of a psychologist or counselor who specializes in young children. Some play therapy and parenting help can make the transition smoother and help you stay attuned to your little ones needs.

I was in a similar situation years ago but i had no kids.

s shelter for a week came back things got better for a while got married then he acting like a **** again! Anyone have any advice about divorce and child custody that's been through this?

There are specific programs around the country for kids whose parents are going through a divorce (e.g., Banana Splits). Perhaps this is something that your son's therapist or the school could offer advice on. How much can you and his father work together to address the issues with your son? How involved is he in dealing with your son's problems?

I have put in my application for divorce and for a goverment apartment, but with goverment helped there is 3 stimpulations (for the divorce). 1. all properties are to be sold and divided evenly (we dont have any property), 2. was something else, and 3. was agreed custody over our duaghter. I sat down and tried talking to him calmly, but I don't see him agreeing on it. I take care of my daughter pretty much on my own (school issues, doctors,.

My husband kicked me out yesterday. He said he wants a divorce because he doesnt love me anymore. This is all so sudden, and a shock to me, because i thought we had a great marriage. My question is, i want to move outside the country, im 7 months. My question is can i fly on plane across the ocean when im 7 months? Can he sue me for kidnapping his child even though he's not born yet?

He wasn't my husband and we don't have other kids but my child's father left me for his ex About 2 months ago. It *****. I just try to focus on my baby and realize that if he wanted to leave I could do nothing but keep it moving.

I also feel extremely guilty moving home because my boyfriend is also very far from his family, as he is from Maine, but the last time I moved to a different state away from friends and family for a man, I got screwed over really bad...hence my divorce. I was left with 3 kids, no money, no food, no childcare and no job as I was a stay at home mom for the entire 6 yr marriage.

She is a sweet gentil girl, and recently had parents who had a messy divorce. Her intention was not to hurt the child. I am wondering what I should do about this? She has babysat my kids many times and they absolutely adore her. Should I talk to her mother or encourage her to see a therapist?

But I was not ready for the over the top behaviour my son is now displaying.. I read up on divorce and the effects on kids and I try to make life as normal as possible for them.. He sleeps in my bed for security, has done since his dad moved out, I shower him with love and reasurrance all the time. His life has routine and consistencey, and I am still the same on the discipline and rules as before..I really don't know what else to do?...

The fact is through the highly emotional period of separation and divorce I have cried sometimes when I am alone with my kids and twice this occurred during low glucose levels with one of the times my older boy got me food, ice cream. (The other time I got food myself.) We were at Cedar Point and I was waiting for the ride with them when my glucose was going down at the same time I realized that the last time we were here as a family which got me sad.

45 days prior to me returning to the states at the end of the contract she filed for divorce and never even talked with me about it. I did not know until paperwork was in hand 2 weeks after it was filed in the court. I returned to the states and I am living apart from the family. There was no communication for over 4 weeks all went through attorneys while I stood with my jaw on the ground wondering what happened.

Thankx. i guess hez stying with us for a year or a year n' 1/2 BTW its feels like forever. for my hub well, hope i really really hope he stays like this way. an other thing is my husb family grew up in middleeast countris so in ther"Culture" mens dont do ANYTHING in the kitcken or wash thier dishes IF they do it means they are "under somone" or not"MANLY". so his bro- grew up in that way. but here im diff. so they gotta deal with tht.

We live in SC and the divorce laws are sticky here. I am not sure how much a divorce will cost me or how I will deal with life being "single." The guy I am in a relationship with is in the army. It just gets more and more complicated. I am not sure what to do. I want to leave my husband to be with my boyfriend, but I am unsure of the unknown of what will happen once I tell my husband. I dont think I can tell him Im cheating on him bc my BF is in the army. Not sure how that works.

Like you said, the first thing is to have the divorce final. They were separated before we met. And the kids know about the divorce. However there are many things to be sorted like, the splitting of the properties, custody etc.

I'm newly pregnant about 4 wks here's issue, I have been legally married for 17 years but for the last 7 years not with "ex"husband at all. We live together in separate rooms because I want to raise my 4 older children and can't afford a divorce since all our assets are tied together. I've been with another man for the last 4 years privately and in love .. Next year I was planning to take action and make things happen as in divorce papers ..

Just this past summer my husband served me with divorce papers. He even tried to take my kids. But i missed him something terrible even after all the mean things he did to me. But i finally got the nerve to talk to him and i told him how i felt and we both agreed on marriage counseling. I will be the first to say i didnt think he would ever change because every summer he cheats but counseling has been the best thing for our Marriage.

i was the one who called her and told her that we were together and having a baby..she doesnt have any kids and wants kids badly but is completely unable to have kids due to a histarectomy..she has been very quiet and not said anything to either one of us since..am i wrong to want him to divorce her before the baby is born or i dont want his name on the birth certificate until they are divorced???..he wants a divorce too but has little if no time off work to go speak with a lawyer so far..

Both my sister and a friend have kids with dead beat dads. My sisters son begs and cries every friday afternoon not to have to go to his fathers house because his father chose to retaliate and is terrible to my nephew, but in order for my sister to get child support my nephews father demands to see my nephew every weekend. My friends daughters father refuses to work because child support gets automatically taken out of his weekly paychecks. So you guys may be in for a long road so be prepared.

Besides how are you supposed to raise those kids after you divorce when you are a stay at home mom. Divorce opens up a whole new can of worms. Two things from the little tht you posted. You could be having a serious bout of depression, hormone fluctuations, or might just need to add something to your life for you only. Adult time, me time, a hobby of some sort, make a few friends and a good way to do that is to see if a moms group is active in your area and you can check that on the computer.

I've been through a divorce with young kids. I was 4 years clean at the time. I thanked God my thinking wasn't scattered and cloudy with drugs and alcohol at that time in my life. The one thing that should always be the most important thing for you to remember: put your own recovery first. Don't use no matter what. Everything will fall as it will, but if you don't use and learn to accept life on life's terms you'll get through this in the best shape possible.

i eventually met another man and when i look at how he treats me compared to that other ****,it makes me wonder what was i even doing with somone like that,and just to add,my ex is still at the same thing,messing around,no job and drinking and obviously no time for kids so my kids dont see him or even remember him.but they wouldnt swap their step dad for the world. there is light at the end of the tunnel.

I am in the middle of a divorce and my ex is not the father of my baby. Both of my other children, however, are to him. My question is would it be weird to give the new baby my last name which happens to be my exhusbands last name. Obviously both of my other kids have his name but I am not sure it would be weird or not. Btw the father is not and does not want to be involved. I appreciate any advice on this matter. Thank you.

Thanks everyone for the advice. We live in Wisconsin. We've been married 23 years with lots of up and downs. He is also a control freak and will try to intimidate me. Tonight he told me that I stepped out of bounds he would drop me from his open enrollment for group Insurance.
