Family Law

That they want to have a say in it.



They love them



How much it hurts. Also, its hard not to wish that they could go back in time and do something to try to prevent it.



Most kids just want to be left alone.



It hurts. You feel bad. It feels like your world is crashing down.



That they are lost and hurting and want to know their parents love them and that it's not their fault



They want to know its not their fault, and why they are getting divorced.



I want them to know that it hurts.



That is it not easy for us at all. Seeing parents divorced or growing up without mom and dad living together makes our whole view of life different. We become more independent and strong. Marriage and kids are not such a positive thing anymore.



They love them.



That it's not easy, even though I don't have divorce I can still picture how it must feel. They must feel like crying and screaming.





Parents should constantly keep kids aware of what's going on because otherwise children feel neglected and disrespected. Kids also want their parents to know that-simply-they (we) can handle the truth of the situation.



We wonder the cause of the break, and worry about our own future family.



They will always love them no matter what and they aren't taking sides.



They are sad and lonely.



Well, having 5 of my friends with divorced parents, they all tell me that they hate that the parents never communicate with each other



That the divorce was not their fault.



It hurts like hell, and it makes you think that all marriages suck.



That it's not their fault.



They want to let them know how they feel. Sometimes it breaks them apart but other times they're okay with it since they realize that it's better for both parents if they just get a divorce.



We are going through too much to handle and we really need an open relationship and to talk. We are also kinda mad at you.



They want parents to know that they don't want to feel like their parents are competing for them (trying to either fight for custody or just who gives the best presents).



That they are saddened that they cannot have peace in their household, especially because generally there is nothing they can do to help the situation.



I don't know, my parents have never split. I think though that it's that they resent them for not being able to keep it together, that they're weak and the kids need them to be strong...



That the parents had enough love to create them, so they should have enough dedication to one another not to hurt the children.



Sometimes, they might feel responsible. They feel helpless and feel stuck in the middle. Mom tries to convince you that Dad is a bad person, and Dad tries to convince you that Mom is the one in the wrong.



That just because they are divorced, doesn't mean that they should complain about each other to their kids because it makes them all confused on what's real and what's a lie.



They pretty much want their parents to know how hard it is for them to imagine a world where they're not together. It's important for parents to know how unfair it seems to children even if it isn't.



We hate when you fight.
