My mother had a saying, “Get to getting.” What this meant to me as a youngster, was that I would be in in big trouble if I didn’t get started with whatever task she had assigned to me. What is means to me today is to get started at whatever task I need to carryout for success.
We have started a new year. You made it through the holidays and hopefully you are ready to, “Get to getting.”
The American Board of Matrimonial Lawyers states that more divorces are filed in the first month in each new year than at any other time. Not many people want to begin a divorce right before the holidays so get yourself prepared for the possibility that you may be served with divorce papers.
If you have really given your marriage your best shot, divorce might be your only option. If it is your desire to get the ball rolling, you need to “get to getting.”
Please remember that your children, no matter what age they are become vulnerable when their parents break up.
It’s best if you and your spouse can tell them about the divorce together. It will help them deal with the process if you both share the news in a non-confrontational way. Let your children know that the divorce is not their fault and that you will always love them.
