7Remain open to communication
Listen to your children. Don’t judge them and don’t tell them how they should feel.
Accept their current feelings, while stressing that they will not always feel that way. Time will change things. Make them understand that you will always be there for them. Do not ask questions that could cause your children to point a finger at your ex. Ask your children to talk about those things with a neutral, impartial adult such as a therapist or friend of the family.
