I think everyone deals with it differently. Depends on ages and circumstances. Me, personally I was too young to know what was going on. Had no contact with my dad until I was 16, when I went looking for him......
If you're trying to cope with it then I wish you all the best.
Just remember that they are grown ups and them divorcing is not your fault.

Tell him yes that you will see him but make it clear that you will see him only. When the time comes he probably won't even show up. If he does and tries to make you go with him tell him no. You are probably of age to decide what parent you want to live with if you're old enough to be asking questions on this site. In Texas the age is 10.

It is hard to deal with no matter what age you are. Ask them not to make you choose between them, you want to stay in touch with whoever moves out of the family home. Or if you are older and have a family of your own make sure you see both parents and tell them you will not be telling tales on each other as you love them both

Depends on how they get along. If they can keep the kids out of the disagreements great, but on the other hand sometimes the children purposely get involved to cause turmoil to get what they want. If you are the kid, 1st know it's not your fault they went their separate ways. Be strong, talk to someone you trust, remember that they both love you even if they don't show it. If your parents seem happier away from each other, just pray for their happiness and that you can grow up knowing that both of them love you.

well everyone deals that kind of things diffrently and mostly u have to understand why people get divorced. i mean how old are you. if you old enough you should understund why they gettin divorced i mean they might think that it is best for you because of some reason that i dont know. or maybe its just not workin out between them. there are lot of ways that u should deal wiv these things.

I have dealed with this before. I live with my mom and I havent seen my dad in 4 months. He lives in Georgia and I live in Virginia. I talk to him as much as I can and in the summertime I going to visit him. So I think you should try that out. I know its going to be a hard time but you got to get through it. Good Luck :)

we were divorced and was advised to have an occasional meal together with the children so we all, every now and again had meals and outings the kids seemed OK about our separating and have all got on, my girls have grown up now and are happy we are all good friends now I think this helped my kids to accept our divorce .I hope it all goes well for you.

Even though they are divorced they are both still your parents, try not to take sides and love them both

As hard as it is don't get in the middle and don't let them put you in the middle. They are your parents and hopefully love you and are trying to keep you out of their problems. Set your boundaries and stick to them. But don't take sides and just love them.

it takes awhile. it just depends on how well you get along with your parents, and if they still get along with each other. TRUST ME! i have been there, and it took my brother and me years to forgive our dad for leaving. just like every kid, we thought it was our fault. but, just know this....IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT!!
