When a child's parents tell her they decided to divorce, the last thing she wants to do is talk about it. Instead, she wants to roar as loud as a lion so she can't hear their painful words, or turn into a fish and hide her tears in the sea, or even become a bird and fly away. But with her mother and father's help, she starts to consider what life will be like after the divorce and learns that although some things will change, many other things will remain the same. Most importantly, she realizes that although her parents may not agree on is that they both love her very much and will always be her mom and dad. Published under the auspices of the American Psychological Association, this book offers parents a valuable tool for initiating a dialogue with their children about divorce. The story reveals the full range of feelings that a young child might experience when the family is confronting divorce, including anger, grief, fear, and loneliness. The book also explores a child's basic concerns about the reasons for the divorce and about what life will be like afterward. Using images of animals that young children will easily relate to, I Don't Want to Talk About It reassures children that it is normal to feel as fierce as a crocodile or as a kangaroo. Most importantly, it emphasizes that divorce does not change parents' love and commitment regarding their children.
In a Note to Parents, Dr. Philip Stahl, an author and psychologist specializing in divorce and custody issues, tells parents what expect from their children when facing divorce and offers practical guidance for helping these children make the healthiest adjustment possible. About the Author:
