Let’s face it, when parents get a separation and/or divorce it is going to affect everyone in the family – even your extended families. And who is the most vulnerable party? Your children. Parents may not realize how much their kids suffer before, during, and after a separation takes place. Kids can feel the tension in a household or get caught up in the anxiety, anger, and bitterness between parents. It is best to keep the lines of communication with your kids open and let them know that they will always have two supportive, loving parents no matter what. Luckily, your Orlando and Central Florida divorce attorney can help you through your divorce as a whole family.

Some important things to remember when talking to your kids about your impending divorce:

• Don’t ask your kids to choose sides. You’ll end up putting them in the middle of your problems.
  
  
• Don’t say bad things about your ex in front of your children. This puts your child in an extremely difficult and uncomfortable situation because they still love both of their parents.
  
  
• Keep the lines of communication open with your kids and with your ex. Put your differences aside and remember that although you may be hurting, you are still a responsible adult and a parent.
  
  
• Most importantly, don’t be afraid to own up to your mistakes. Let your kids know that you did something wrong. Make new commitments to your children and keep them.
  
  

Don’t be afraid to seek professional advice on the proceedings of your divorce, child support, and child custody. Divorce attorneys are here to help make this difficult time easier. While divorce isn’t easy for any child, going about it in a professional manner can ease the emotional trauma for everyone involved.
