This book sets out in the familiar US tone of self-help books on what to do and avoid saying to children involved in a divorce. It is a clear, straightforward instruction on how to behave as an adult in a stressful situation.

Being newly separated with a young child, I was hoping for some insight and guidance on childhood responses to stress and sadness.

This book provides an overview of that behaviour, and addresses the superficial responses an adult can make.

It's a simple book with straightforward assistance. If that's your bag then this book is ok.
If you are looking for more than a review of adult commonsense- although that is lacking sometimes- this is not the scholarly work you're seeking.

But to make sure, in times of mental stress, that you're still behaving as you ought, then this is a decent guide.
