In this episode, hosts Matt & Liza talk to Sue Atkins, a leading Parenting Expert, author of Divorce Journal for Kids, and Broadcaster, to look at how to best support children through all the changes that divorce brings.
Sue talks about the best way to tell children you are separating, whatever their age, the importance of listening and communication, and the power of the narrative you tell and the language you use.
She discusses how parents can work together, the importance of planning and creating a parenting plan, how to manage special occasions such as Christmas and birthdays, and build new traditions.
To close, she shares her advice on how to support children emotionally, build connections, put in boundaries, and keep things clear and consistent to give them the structure and routine they need.
