The one thing children of divorced parents have in common is a struggle to accept the loss of the family unit. While there may be good custody arrangements in place, the child still has to learn how to manage the transitions each time they leave one home to stay at the other. These are small losses for them to cope with emotionally and often get overlooked.This is definitely the moment to learn how to use the three As:1/ Acknowledge the child's struggle.2/ Accept them where they are, and what they are telling you about their feelings.3/ Action to support them process these feelings.In this episode I talk about what happens when you move too quickly into the action stage, and how you can use a visualisation game to help children express their feelings, and start to make sense of their loss.Connect with Amandawww.amandaseyderhelm.comTwitter @The KidDecoderInstagram @amandaseyderhelmPurchase my book Helping Children Cope with Loss and Change
