How do you manage divorced parents?

my parents are divorced too. and have been for nine years. things do become easyer. thers a light at the end of every tunel… even yours.

ok well all I could tell you is its life a lot of children go trough this, most care some kill their self and others dont give a crap. my bff went trough this I supported her just as much as she supported her mom. her mom has had one baby soo far. if god was in your shoes he would support your mom.

P.S. god bless you!

I know how difficult it can be…

First, you did not cause your parents’ marital problems or divorce. Second, it is typical and normal to have strong emotional responses to the divorce, often accompanied by feelings of split loyalties to your parents and pressures to rescue the more fragile parent. Third, you have a right to continue your own life and to attend to your own hopes and needs during this period. Consider the following ideas about what you have a right to want or expect, even if your parents are not currently able to provide them or able to understand their importance.

~ You have the right to want a satisfying relationship with each parent. ~ You have the right not to be caught between your parents as they struggle with each other. ~ You have the right to your feelings whether they are anger, frustration, pain, love, etc. ~ You have the right to work through your feelings and to receive cooperation from other family members in dealing with problems you are experiencing related to your parents’ divorce. ~ You have the right to maintain your position in priority for family resources, especially concerning support for school.

I’m afraid you have to accept it all. Do you have friends you can talk to about it? Maybe their parents have gone through divorce as well. Talk to both of your parent about it all.

I’m sure it will get better and you will get through it.

Good luck =]
