The Divorce Helpbook for Kids (Rebuilding Books; for Divorce and Beyond)

It's in the news every day: divorce is tough on kids. MacGregor knows how tough, and she has prepared a down-to-earth guide that genuinely helps. Included are discussions about many topics troubling kids when their parents divorce: reasons parents get divorced; ways the divorce will change kids' lives; kids' feelings about divorce; things kids can do to help them feel better; who to talk to; what's likely to happen next.

This is not just a book for kids about divorce, though. It's a book about life after divorce, too. The kids in MacGregor's book are dealing with visitation and custody and straddling two households and making it all work. Maybe it isn't easy, but it is possible and it is necessary.

Written in a reader-friendly, warm, down-to-earth style for children whose parents are divorcing, THE DIVORCE HELPBOOK FOR KIDS will also be useful for: divorcing parents who want to help kids understand; grandparents of divorced children; child and family therapists.
