Separating, moving and changing your life this much, no matter how \u201cmutual and amicable,\u201d can be quite difficult. And if you look into the literature regarding separation\/divorce and children, it certainly is part of the adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/violenceprevention\/aces\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">list<\/a>. When experienced during childhood, these events can significantly affect kids\u2019 abilities to mature, and they can have an effect on their mental health and lead to a host of other problems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Where does divorce fit in? Well, like everything in life, it depends. The level of dysfunction, abuse, fear and upset in the home, along with how acrimonious the separation is, can certainly lead to divorce being an important adverse event in a child\u2019s life. But life isn\u2019t that black and white: Every ACE \u2014 even the worst \u2014 can be helped with therapy and warm, loving relationships.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Why am I telling you this?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Our culture tends to be binary regarding separation and divorce: It is either a total disaster between the parents and, therefore, the child, or the parents are amicable and the child is \u201cfine.\u201d But that\u2019s not all there is to it. How the child feels about the divorce is what matters the most. Does it matter that you are keeping his environment (neighborhood), camps, school and activities the same? You bet it does! Seeing the same supportive adults and maintaining a schedule can feel like safety to a child who may be reeling from a separation. But many parents will take on a \u201cYour life is the same!\u201d stance when a child may feel the opposite.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Parents also make the assumption that if the separation is amicable, the child won\u2019t feel torn between the two parents. But even when parents express loving support for each other, a sensitive 7-year-old can feel the need to be loyal to one parent over the other. If there has been no sign of strife in the house, this can be even more confusing to your son. He can begin to question what he knew and how he understood your relationship. He may feel blindsided, and he or may not trust you, no matter how amicable you are.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">I am not trying to freak you out or make you feel guilty. It is wonderful that you and your partner are clearly communicating and wanting the best for your son. More than anything, I want you to remember the power you have as parents. This isn\u2019t just happening to your son; this is an ongoing and unfolding dynamic that I want you to feel empowered to confront as the years go on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Divorce or not, take the time to learn more about the life of a sensitive child, and look for the signs of maturity and good mental health in your son. (I recommend books such as \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/embed?asin=B000FC1IJ0&amp;preview=newtab&amp;linkCode=kpe&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_12R3Q3J3G6G0FCHT4PVV&amp;tag=thewaspos09-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Highly Sensitive Child<\/a>,\u201d by Elaine N. Aron.) Not every behavior will be related to the divorce, so the more you understand about your son, the better equipped you will be to respond rather than react.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">One of the most important factors to remember is that we are not going for a zero-sum game; your son isn\u2019t meant to be \u201chappy\u201d or \u201cunhappy.\u201d Divorce has effects that are sometimes acute and obvious (often around holidays and vacations) and sometimes sneaky (small dinners and movie times), and your parenting work isn\u2019t to fix or stop the sadness; it\u2019s to welcome it in and sit with it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">As child developmental psychologist Gordon Neufeld says: The more space we give an emotion, the less room it takes up. Your job isn\u2019t to get your child to feel or not feel anything in particular; it\u2019s to keep the emotions moving. If your son is angry, let him be angry. If he is sad, let him be sad. I cannot say this enough: Don\u2019t assume how your son will react to this divorce, and know that all emotions are welcome.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Your job is to keep your side of the street clean. Don\u2019t split loyalties, and never bad-mouth your co-parent. Keep your word, and keep your communications as clear as possible. Don\u2019t assume how your son feels. Mindfully create spaces where your son can be honest with you (go for drives, play video games, etc.), and prioritize fun and joy. Life will change dramatically, but there will be unexpected joys that should be celebrated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p data-qa=\"drop-cap-letter\" data-el=\"text\" class=\"font-copy font--article-body gray-darkest ma-0 pb-md\">Play therapy could be a wonderful option, but don\u2019t assume that it\u2019s needed. Don\u2019t panic, and remember: You are still your child\u2019s best bet. The therapist doesn\u2019t know your child like you do. You don\u2019t need to be perfect; you simply have to show up with a full heart and with your eyes wide open. Good luck.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-body\" data-qa=\"article-body\">\n<p><span class=\"font--article-body font-copy hide-for-print ma-0 pb-md db italic interstitial\"><a data-qa=\"interstitial-link\" href=\"https:\/\/hosted-washpost.submissionplatform.com\/sub\/hosted\/61f2e6f7689d9d0030eb2e7a\">Have a question about parenting?
