Child Centered Divorce - Rosalind Sedacca, Cct

When it comes to divorce or separation, there’s never a “best” time to tell  your children.   But there is a “best” way!   Introducing my innovative new guidebook …    HOW DO I TELL THE KIDS ABOUT THE DIVORCE? … a Create-a-Storybook™ Guide To Preparing Your Children – with Love!  Endorsed by therapists, attorneys, mediators, educators, clergy and other divorce professionals.   Dear Friend:   I never thought my marriage would end in divorce. I’m sure you didn’t either.   But mine did end several years ago. And now it’s happening to you.   You’re getting a Divorce! Or maybe a trial Separation. Either way, it’s a challenging time. For you, your spouse, and especially for your innocent children.   I know … because I went through it too.   I struggled with the anger, the hurt, the gut-wrenching fear, as well as the anxiety and guilt. What’s worse, I struggled with the burning question that kept me up for weeks:   How do I tell the kids?   Are you facing the same dilemma?   Are you wondering …               when to break the news to your kids?              just how you’re going to tell them?              whether to do it alone or with your spouse?   And most important of all – are you unsure about …                what you should say?   I’ve been there. I learned a lot and have a lot of wisdom to share. And I want to remind you that you’re not alone.   There are answers to your questions. Valuable answers. And there’s a simple way to tell your children in a manner that eases their pain, reassures them of your love and helps them get through the many challenges ahead.   How Do I Tell the Kids about the Divorce? doesn’t just tell you what to say. It says it for you!   It’s no secret. Telling your children about the divorce may be the most difficult conversation you’ll ever have. Why leave it to chance?   I wrote this guidebook so you don’t have to worry, spend sleepless nights or beat yourself up about making a mistake … saying the wrong things … falling apart … or not having answers to your children’s immediate questions.   I know there are many books about children and divorce. What makes this one unique? My innovative Create-a-Storybook™ concept. I’ve prepared for you an actual template – the word-for-word text that tells you just what you need to say – in age-appropriate language for children 5 to 10 or 10 to 15. And then I guide you, step-by-step, in preparing an attractive personal family storybook, in a photo-album format, that your children will want to read.   In other words, I don’t just tell you what to say – I actually say it for you – with love and compassion! I also include the six key messages your children continuously need to hear, understand and accept at this crucial time. Even if you don’t purchase my guidebook, you need to make sure you share these essential messages with your kids again and again so that they never forget:   1. You are, and always will be, loved my Mom and Dad. 2. You are, and will continue to be, safe. 3. You are not to blame for any of this. 4. Mom and Dad will still always be your Mom and Dad. 5. This is about change, not about blame 6. Everything is going to be okay.   No other book shows you how to create a customized storybook uniquely about your family … your children … and your divorce!     The benefits for both you and your children are immeasurable.
