Parent Problems!

Children's Views on Life when Parents Split Up

"My family just is. It's different from other people's families, but I
don't mind because who says what a family should be like?"
(Hope, 14)

In 'Parent Problems' a group of children and young people share
their varied experiences and knowledge of life after parents split
up. With wit and wisdom they provide an honest view of the ups
and downs of family changes. Here is a testament to their
struggles, their strengths, and their generosity. This book
underlines the need to respect children's views on family life. In
'Parent Problems', young readers will find other children who
have shared their experiences and feelings. All parents, whether
together or apart, will find new insights into family life from the
children's point of view.
