Child self-esteem and divorce, Part 2

Minimize or eliminate your child’s sense of guilt about the divorce. Having divorce ruin your life is a choice, which you don’t have to make. If you do, don’t let your kids blame themselves for a pity party that you chose. Write in your agreement how happy you were the day you first saw your children. Make a commitment to them, in your agreement, in your own words, not to burden them with your divorce.
