Why
does it happen? |
There are lots of reasons why parents
decide to live apart and family arrangements have to change.
| “They
were always arguing and they just seemed to stop liking each other.”
“ I wanted them to get back
together and my brother and I were really upset when they said it was too
late.”
“After a while you realise they
are happier separated.” |
Here are some of the most common reasons:
 |
|
drifting apart |
|
|
|
 |
|
seeing things differently |
|
|
|
|
|
wanting to go in different
directions |
|
|
|
|
|
wanting to be with someone
else |
When adults decide to separate or divorce it is usually
because one or both of them are unhappy and they believe the relationship needs
to change.
These reasons are different for every family. If you don’t
understand why this is happening try asking your parents.
The changes in your family will affect you but remember
you are not the reason why your parents are separating or divorcing.
