When you and your spouse decide to part ways, it’s obvious there are some weighty issues. But this decision can adversely affect your children if you fail to handle the situation well. Here’s how to tell your children about the change that will occur in their lives. 1) It’s time to put your animosity aside and come together with your spouse to convey to your kid that the marriage is going to end. Make a plan as to how you’re going to break the news. You need to show your kid that though you won’t be together, you can cooperate as parents and that you and your spouse will continue to take active involvement in his/her life. 2) Even if you cannot stand each other, avoid criticising the other parent in front of your children. Playing blame games can be destructive and emotional harm them. So as a parent, it is your responsibility to make sure your child isn’t involved in your conflicts. 3) When telling your child about the divorce, be honest and realistic. Keep their age in mind and avoid sharing too many details about the split. At the same time, do not give false hopes by saying that your relationship could improve. They should know that their life is going to change after the divorce but at the same time assure them that they will receive the same love from their parents. Prepare them for the change without being too emotional.
