Before you talk to your children, you need to think about what you are going to tell them and their possible reactions. Divorce is especially hard on children since they often do not understand what is happening and may have strong emotions about it. They are also highly attuned to the emotional undercurrents in your household. Even if you think you have hidden your marital problems from the kids, it is likely they know about them. Because of this, it is important to discuss an impending divorce with your children, to explain what is happening and to let them know they can talk to you about their feelings. You also want to make sure that your children hear about the divorce from you, and not from friends or relatives who may inadvertently make a comment within range of little ears.
