It is, at best, a difficult decision that evokes feelings of failure and loss. Most people expect that when they marry it will last a lifetime and they build their hopes and dreams on that premise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: sub;\">Divorce hurts, breaking up a family hurts, and your children have a different experience than you do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 18px; vertical-align: sub;\">No one in a persons&#8217; life is untouched by the break-up of a family.

When you bring children from different families together to make a \u201cnew family\u201d challenges are bound to arise. Each family has its own dynamic with different backgrounds, parenting styles, values and expectations. Children often struggle with loyalty issues and resentments toward their new step parent and siblings. Learn to work through the complicated family structure, understand the role of being a step parent and develop mutual understanding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 18px; vertical-align: sub;\"><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Why does my child hate my husband\/wife?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 18px; vertical-align: sub;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Why is there a constant power struggle between my children and my husband\/wife and me?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 18px; vertical-align: sub;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Have you ever asked yourself why can\u2019t we all get along?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; vertical-align: sub;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0My \u201cex\u201d makes everything so hard, what can I do?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cDivorce is a type of death, full of grief and pain.\u201d \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 According to the Adult Life Change Index Scale that measures stress levels\u00a0T.H.Holmes &amp; T.H.Rahe, Journal of Psychosomatic Research 1967 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":30,"menu_order":6,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-32","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":393,"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32\/revisions\/393"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/30"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/counselingmelbournefl.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
