In the same way as it is for teenagers, the window of opportunity for children for preventing serious problems later in life is one year from the time of separation. If the anxiety or concern remains untreated, teens from single or blended families are three times more likely to need psychological help. This workbook contains forty activities to help younger children to cope in these difficult situations. It focuses particularly on getting kids out of the middle and making them more self-reliant. Every child whose parents are going through a divorce needs this workbook!
