With the divorce rate at 50%, half of the all students are impacted by divorce. Real kids describe their feelings about divorce and share with viewers their first-hand experiences. Divorce expert and psychologist, Valerie Raymond, reassures young teens that while things may be tough now, they will get better with time. Some topics covered in discussions include: living arrangements, schedules, feelings of blame, getting caught between fighting parents, coping with strong emotions, parents’ new love interests, and blended families.
