This takes a big impact on a teenagers life, they feel like they need to choose between one parent and are stuck between the fueds along with the divorce. Back then divorces weren't common, but saldy now it is a norm. At our age 16+ divorce starts to interfere with our everyday lives- work, school, our social and emotional lives. Some kids take it so harsh that their whole personality turns dark, divorce messes people up in the head.
Half of U.S marriages end in divorce and cause a huge financial strain on both the mother and father. Teens should never feel like the divorce is their fault, its just that the marriage isn't going in the way their parents expected it to go.
The only way to keep a divorce run smooth is talk out the differences and keep everything at a cool pace with no arguing so there is a good amount of peace between the family.

Luckily, I was only ten when my parents got divorced. But it isn't an easy thing seeing your dad at the door with a suitcase wondering when you're going to see him again and not being able to understand why he has to go. Luckily, I ended up moving in with my dad and my mother lives no more than five minutes down the street. A lot of kids aren't as fortunate as I am when their parents get divorced. They really are put in the middle of a feud that has nothing to do with them or something they did. Those are the immature parents who maybe shouldn't have had children in the first place.
ReplyDeleteBut divorce isn't so bad when you're as lucky as I am. I actually like it better this way, when I need to leave one parent, I have the other to go to. I have two houses, two closets, two cabinets of food haha. It's just nice to have two homes.
