helpful for parents,
By Suzanne M. Caldwell - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Making Divorce Easier on Your Child: 50 Effective Ways to Help Children Adjust (Paperback)
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 review is from: Making Divorce Easier on Your Child: 50 Effective Ways to Help Children Adjust (Paperback)
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.
