One of the biggest questions that people have about the divorce process concerns their children's emotional and mental well being during the divorce: how do you protect your children from the mud and the muck. Regardless of the age of your children, both you and your spouse should put mechanisms in place to protect your children. The younger the children are, the more protection that will be required by you and your spouse.
When should you take measures to protect the children? What measures should you take? Below is a list of three measures that you should take regardless of the age of the children in order to protect them from the mud and the muck of the divorce process. Our advice is that you read the three measures, thoroughly familiarize yourself with them, and then implement them to various degrees in order to protect them accordingly.
Measure One - Talk With Your Children. At the point in time where you and your spouse separate, you should sit down with the children and talk with them about the situation. Ideally, both you and your spouse will be present during this talk. It is very important during that during this talk you explain to the children that the separation has nothing to do with any wrongdoing committed on their part. Doing so will ensure that they do not blame themselves for the separation.
Measure Two - Do Not Discuss The Details Of The Divorce With The Children. Once you and the children have had 'the talk' as discussed in number one above, be sure not to discuss the details of the divorce with them any further. By shielding them from the details, you avoid the risk of your children becoming a 'go between' between you and your spouse.
Measure Three - Be Available To The Children. Regardless of whether you and your spouse are able to be civil towards one another, make sure that the children know that you are always available to them. By making sure they know this, you will help them overcome the often overwhelming feelings of uncertainty that children feel during the divorce process.
