Divorce
Divorce is a difficult and emotional issue to deal with. Many young people have to deal with divorce.
If your parents or carers decide to split up, you need to understand that it's not your fault. Reading My Family's Splitting Up may help you understand some of the reasons why parents decide to live apart.
Nothing you have done or try to do can stop them. They have decided that divorce is the best solution and you must respect their decision.
Divorce Aid has information specifically for teenagers, or you can get support via ChildLine, if you are going through a family break-up or worried that your parents might be splitting up.
Don't forget, you can always chat to a Youth Support Worker at school or drop in to a youth support centre if you are worried about how divorce or break-ups are affecting you.
