Children and Divorce: Helping When Life Interrupts

Children and Divorce

Helping When Life Interrupts

Sadness, depression, anger, fear, anxiety, loyalty conflicts; your children are struggling with at least some of these emotions after your divorce. To make things even more difficult, you are struggling too. How do you help your child cope with the changes in the family, while you’re still adjusting?  In Children and Divorce Amy Baker explains the various responses you and your children may be having to your divorce and applies the gospel of Jesus Christ in practical and kid-friendly ways to the struggle your family is going through. As you share God’s Word with your children, your family will grow in faith and hope through this difficult time.
