Almost everyone understands that children who act out suddenly after the onset of divorce have emotional issues.
The part that so many women don’t understand is that the children who don’t appear to have issues might be hurting more than the ones who are acting out.
One of the biggest mistakes that women make during the divorce process is assuming that the children who don’t appear to be breaking down are unscathed by the divorce process. This is so untrue.
Often these are the kids who hold the pain inside. They are the ones who could potentially be in more danger than the ones who act out. They are the ones who might become more depressed.
Please watch all of your kids. Spend time with each of them and listen to each and every one of them because each one of them is hurting in a different and personal way.
