Children are always very worried about the separation of their parents. Divorce for a child is an acute psychological trauma. The world in which he used to live is destroyed, and the closest and dearest people become traitors. The child feels unhappy, losing something very important and valuable in his life. At this difficult moment, he just needs to feel the care and love of both parents.

First, gather your strength, thoughts and talk about the upcoming divorce. Remember that both parents must be present during the conversation. It is better to choose the right moment for the conversation in advance.
Step 2
It is very important that the child does not feel unnecessary. Explain that even after a divorce, his parents will always be with him. Reassure your child that no one is leaving him.

Don't be bad about your ex. Reassure your baby that he can always meet with him.
