Implications of divorce

Okay, so you know how mommy and daddy love each other and they're married? Sometimes grown-ups change and they don't want to be married anymore. That's called a divorce.

When mommy and daddy get a divorce, a lot of things change. They might not live together anymore and they might even live in different houses. This can mean that you might have to move too, to a new house or a new school.

Sometimes mommy and daddy might argue a lot during the divorce and that can be really scary for you. But it's not your fault and it's okay to feel sad or confused about it.

When mommy and daddy get a divorce, they have to figure out things like who gets to take care of you and when. They might also have to figure out who gets to keep the house, the car or other things. This can take a long time and they might need to go to court to make decisions.

Divorce can be hard for everyone, but it's important to remember that mommy and daddy still love you very much and will always be your parents. Even if things are different now, they will still be there for you and take care of you.
