Phenomenal. Just phenomenal.

Answered SO many of the questions that I had. Set us up very well for the very difficult conversation with the children to let them know of the news. Also helped with scripts for many of the potential questions and situations I feared.

Excellent, short book

I read this to help a friend talk to her children about divorce, and I gave it to her to help her as well. So many great points in an easy, under 4 hour audio book. And as the child of a divorce, so many things I wish my parents had known and done. Read it for your kids.

Best I've Heard So Far!

This audiobook is really good, all the way through. It's engaging, easy to follow, straight to the point, and contains no fluff to make it unnecessarily long. I'm sure I'll listen to it again later!

Great Advice and sample scripts that I can taylor.

This book confirmed most of my thoughts on how to deliver the news to my kids. I helped to align my plan and I shared it with my children's mom. I feel better prepared to have this difficult talk.

Great overview

Nothing earth shattering here, but great to gear up for the numerous talks on divorce you will have with your children.
