If adults broke up, then the children are not to blame. But be that as it may, they will feel disappointed, angry. Children after their parents' divorce often consider themselves guilty of it. You need to talk to them in order to less traumatize the child.
Instructions
Step 1
If there is more than one child in the family, then bring them together. Children should hear from both parents the same decision that they have come together and agreed to this answer about separation. It is best to notify the child in a simple verbal form, for example: "We have decided to live separately for now. We are unhappy living together."
Step 2
Despite the breakup, let your child know that you still love each other. Children should definitely hear this information. Very often, the child considers himself responsible for the fact that the divorce of his parents is entirely his fault. You must prove and show the child that this is fundamentally wrong.
Step 3
You will be asked the question "Why?" Explain that the feelings they once had have changed, gone. If there are no feelings, then it is best to part, so as not to spoil each other's life. You don't need to shout, raise your voice, or speak aggressively to your parents when they interact with your child. So he may think that this is the decision of one dad or mom, and not the whole family.
Step 4
Children will ask you questions about this divorce issue. If the child does not want to talk to you, then in no case put pressure on him. Give him time to think things over and weigh. Let them give vent to feelings, be able to speak out on this issue, encourage them for this. Answer the questions clearly, firmly, and do not lie.
