When it comes
to divorce or separation,
there’s never a
“best” time to tell
your children.
But there is a
“best” way!
Introducing my innovative
new guidebook …
HOW DO I TELL THE KIDS
ABOUT THE DIVORCE?
… a Create-a-Storybook™ Guide
To Preparing Your Children – with Love!
Endorsed by therapists, attorneys, mediators, educators, clergy and other divorce professionals.
Dear Friend:
I never thought my marriage
would end in divorce. I’m sure you didn’t either.
But mine did end several
years ago. And now it’s happening to you.
You’re getting a
Divorce! Or maybe a trial Separation. Either way, it’s a challenging
time. For you, your spouse, and especially for your innocent children.
I know … because I
went through it too.
I struggled with the anger,
the hurt, the gut-wrenching fear, as well as the anxiety and guilt. What’s
worse, I struggled with the burning question that kept me up for weeks:
How do I tell the kids?
Are you facing the same
dilemma?
Are you wondering …
when to break the news to your kids?
just how you’re going to tell them?
whether to do it alone or with your spouse?
And most important of all – are you unsure
about …
what you should say?
I’ve been there. I
learned a lot and have a lot of wisdom to share. And I want to remind you that you’re
not alone.
There are answers to your questions. Valuable
answers. And there’s a simple
way to tell your children in a manner that eases their pain, reassures them
of your love and helps them get through the many challenges ahead.
How Do I
Tell the Kids about the Divorce?
doesn’t
just tell you what to say. It says it for you!
It’s no secret.
Telling your children about the divorce may be the most difficult conversation
you’ll ever have. Why leave it to
chance?
I wrote this guidebook so you don’t have to worry, spend
sleepless nights or beat yourself up about making a mistake … saying the
wrong things … falling apart … or not having answers to your
children’s immediate questions.
I know there are many books about children and divorce. What makes this one unique? My innovative Create-a-Storybook™
concept. I’ve prepared for you an actual template – the
word-for-word text that tells you just what you need to say – in
age-appropriate language for children 5 to 10 or 10 to 15. And then I guide
you, step-by-step, in preparing an attractive personal family storybook, in a
photo-album format, that your children will want to read.
In other words, I
don’t just tell you what to say – I actually say it for you –
with love and compassion! I also include the six key messages your children
continuously need to hear, understand and accept at this crucial time.
Even if you don’t purchase my guidebook, you need to make sure you share
these essential messages with your kids again and again so that they never
forget:
1. You are, and always will be, loved
my Mom and Dad.
2. You are, and will continue to be,
safe.
3. You are not to blame for any of
this.
4. Mom and Dad will still always be
your Mom and Dad.
5. This is about change, not about
blame
6. Everything is going to be okay.
No other book shows you how to create a customized storybook uniquely
about your family … your children … and your
divorce!
The benefits
for both you and your children are immeasurable.
After
reading this Guidebook …
You will be …
·
confident about how to begin, end, and just what to
say all the way through the “divorce” conversation
·
prepared to share with your children the six
essential concepts they need to understand and accept

How Do I Tell the Kids about the Divorce?
Clinical
Psychologist, Jack Singer says …
"Rosalind Sedacca's 'How Do I
Tell the Kids about the DIVORCE?' is a much needed breakthrough in the
emotional minefield that parents traverse when they prepare their children for
an impending divorce. The template, storybook strategy sends
sensitive, kind, loving and safe messages, which every child needs as they
prepare for the scary unknown. I recommend her book for everyone who has
children and is contemplating divorce."

Success Coach Mari Smith says
…
“Rosalind, your book
is sheer brilliance! Filled with sound advice for all parties, How Do I Tell the Kids… about the DIVORCE?
provides a unique opportunity for families struggling through this difficult
time to create a tangible, pictorial representation of the good times that
could be a keepsake for years, even generations, to come. Your book will surely
help children of divorced parents grow up to be more emotionally resilient
adults. (I only wish my parents had this invaluable tool for their divorce when
I was 12—I found it therapeutic to go through almost 30 years later!)”
Mari Smith – Success
Coach
32-year therapist, Beverly Gibel says …
“Rosalind Sedacca has made a
monumental contribution to self-help resources in an area that affects the
lives of millions of men, women and children. After 32 years of counseling
people in various stages of uncoupling, I can testify to the urgent need of a
"how to" guide for people contemplating divorce. This book offers
them a "life preserver." I have already referred my patients to this
material and have received great feedback. I cannot recommend this book highly
enough.”

Gibel, LCSW, ACSW, BCD

Amy Sherman says …
"How Do I Tell the Kids about the
Divorce? is a unique, user-friendly guide for parents who want to broach the
subject of divorce with their children in the most caring and thoughtful
way. I commend Rosalind for her ingenuity and creativity in helping to
reduce the trauma of such a difficult subject."
Amy Sherman, MA LMHC
Noted Celebrity Divorce
Attorney Raoul Felder says …
“How
Do I Tell the Kids…about the DIVORCE? is unique in that it offers parents an
innovative approach to having that difficult and usually dreaded initial
conversation with their children and making it as positive and supportive as
possible. The fill-in-the-blanks
template concept is original and will be an extremely useful tool for families during
a difficult time. A parent
contemplating a divorce would be well served by reading this valuable
book.”
Raoul Felder, Attorney
Family
Mediator and Psychotherapist, Dr. Deri
Ronis says …
I highly recommend "How Do I Tell the Kids
about the Divorce?" The issue of divorce is pervasive and this user
friendly guidebook is good for both children and parents. Its style is
non-judgmental and helpful, full of practical, easy to understand advice that
anyone can use. It is a healing balm based on the author's own experience
which is crucial to empathizing with those going through the same
experience. As a State Certified Family Mediator and
Psychotherapist, I cannot emphasize enough the importance of having such an
easy to use tool for a very challenging situation."
Deri Joy Ronis, Ph.D.
Therapist and former Guidance
Counselor JoAnn Simmons says …
At last! A breakthrough “hands on”
divorce guidebook brilliantly designed to help soften the divorce announcement
blow for children. This book is a
MUST for any divorcing parent who wants a humanistic approach to telling their
children. “Heads up” to
guidance counselors, religious leaders, family therapists, and child-care
advocates. This book is ideal to use in individual therapy, group classes and
parent conferences and is bound to help thousands of children. The family
photos and messages reinforce the concept that their parents really do
care about them.
JoAnn C.Simmons, MA, LMHC, RCC
Psychotherapist and author,
Dr. Paul Wanio says …
“Rosalind Sedacca has put
together a vital tool in helping children (and families) through one of the
most difficult times in life. Her new book, "How Do I Tell the
Kids about the Divorce?" moves beyond a traditional "self-help
book" and becomes a real, practical, ongoing part of a child's life. It
accomplishes this by being interactive and involving real participation by the
child and other family members. I am proud to have contributed
to this wonderful project that Rosalind created from her own, personal
experience as well as the participation of other mental health
professionals. I highly recommend this as more than a book, but a
tool to assist children to more successfully navigate the disorientation
and maze that is part and parcel of divorce.”

Author and Parenting Specialist,
Dr. Sally Goldberg says …
“This hands-on interactive
storybook is a must for all parents going through a divorce. It is a
step-by-step guide for appropriately including children in the process. No
parent should leave their home without it!”

Author and Pastoral
Counselor, Heidi Richards says …
“Divorce is a traumatic event in
everyone’s life – parents and children alike. It is often
difficult to talk about in a rational, meaningful way – especially during
the first days and weeks after one parent moves out. The days leading up
to and after the divorce can leave children feeling uncertain about their own
futures, especially since they don’t have the tools to cope with those
feelings of sadness, anger and confusion. How do I Tell the Kids… about the DIVORCE? helps
children through the experience of divorce, to open up and deal with their
feelings in ways that are comforting and effective in a language they can
understand. Reading “How do I
Tell the Kids… about the DIVORCE?” should be a
requirement for anyone going through this life-altering event before the
Divorce is final.”

Barbara Theodosiou says …
“What an innovative way to help
parents say and do what’s in the best interest of their children when
divorce is on the horizon. Rosalind Sedacca’s storybook concept is
creative, easy to follow, and just what families need to keep them on track as
they face separation, divorce and beyond. The insights and advice of her
excellent team of experts add to the value of this important book. I applaud
Rosalind for a book I can heartily recommend.”

Author and Pastoral Counselor, Dr. Matthew Anderson says …
“This book will be
both healing and helpful to children of divorce and their parents. It is
insightful and a particularly pragmatic, down-to-earth tool for dealing with a
terribly difficult subject. God bless you, Rosalind, for writing it and also for
living it.”
Matthew Anderson, D.Min.
