As a professional counselor, I was interested in specific ideas on helping parents & children of divorce. This book had some very concrete ideas. It is aimed at parents, written in 'plain-speak'. There's nothing new or eath-shaking here, but it is a pretty all-inclusive little book for parents interested in helping their children deal with the issue of divorce.

This book was written to disseminate information derived from three decades of behavioral research into the effects of divorce on children. It has a format of short chapters that make it easy to read and apply as needed. The book is inexpensive, useful, and accurate. I am a clinical psychologist, and in my practice, I recommend this book to all my patients who are parents struggling with divorce.

This book has been an invaluable resource. It provides very useful suggestions and is a must buy for any family undergoing a divorce or those professionals working with divorced families.

It's a good overview, but I needed more situational type information. How to work through the tough disagreements with a spouse who is unwilling to meet on common ground. How to deal with younger children and how it impacts them. I did take away some good advice, but most of the book is common sense.

Not that you can make divorce easier for a child. This book may help. But parents be realistic it is rarely easier. Care about your children by treating their parent with respect. This book can help with that.

Making Divorce Easier on Your Child is a great resource for parents who are divorcing. It provides clear and simple solutions to sticky situations and common-sense advice for parents who are going through a divorce or who have already divorced. I highly recommend it.
