I'VE been forwarded this press release from the charity Parentline Plus. It makes a great point and very much underlines the message that I'm aiming for in Divorce and Separation, The Essential Guide.
Here's the press release in full:
PARENTS' charity Parentline Plus is appealing for greater support for families going through the trauma of divorce and separation to help reduce the damaging effect on children in a new report published today.
The charity is deeply concerned that plans for parent support, being drawn up by local authorities across the country, with guidance from the Department for Children, Schools and Families, do not include specialist help for families who are experiencing high levels of conflict, splitting up or forming stepfamilies.
The calls are made in a new report, “Love Your Children More Than You Hate Each Other’ – The Impact of Divorce and Separation on Families: published after extensive consultation with parents who have experienced the devastating effects of family break up.
