After you’ve told your children about the divorce, promptly tell their teachers, school counselor, grandparents, coaches, babysitters, and other significant adults in their life so they can be on the lookout for behavior and mood changes and provide support. However, be sure to tell your children first so they do not hear about their parents’ divorce from someone else.

Telling your children you are getting a divorce will be difficult, but preparing for the conversation can help it go as smoothly as possible.
