There are no two ways about it: break-ups are horrible. No matter how well-intentioned parents can be during a divorce or separation process, inevitably the kids end up getting hurt. There are plenty of books about divorce for adults, but We Need to Talk About Divorce puts kids front and centre. This approachable book deals with concerns kids might have, from living in two homes to getting caught in the middle of arguments and feeling forced to choose a side. A central theme of the book is enabling kids to feel heard during the process and Kate Scharff includes lots of tips for how kids can talk to their parents even in the trickiest circumstances. This book is frank, honest, and open about the emotions involved in a divorce.
Kate Scharff is a divorce therapist with over 35 years' experience helping children and families to navigate a wide range of issues, such as relationship problems, anxiety, depression, grief, social difficulties, parenting, and life transitions.
