DIVIDED HOMES

Dealing with divorce

IT HAS BEEN estimated
that by the time our new-
borns reach 18 years, 50 per
cent of them will not be living
with both original parents.

Children from Divided
Homes, a course sponsored
by North Shore Family Ser-
vices, has been developed to
meet the needs of this in-
creasing population.

Many children are
bewildered and confused by
the diverce process, even
though parents may have the

best of intentions. Parents,
already feeling hurt
themselves, may find the ex-
tra responsibility of re-
assuring their children
understandably difficult.

But this means the children
are left with a thousand and
one unanswered questions.

With a sensitive and skilled
group leader, and using arts
and crafts with which the
children are comfortable,
these feelings can be
expressed.
