This easy-to-read ebook prepares parents for one of the most difficult conversations they will ever have: telling their children about a pending separation or divorce. What makes How Do I Tell the Kids? unique is that it doesn’t just tell you what to say. It says it for you!
Rosalind’s innovative book guides parents through fill-in-the-blank templates to create an attractive family storybook designed to help a child transition from heartbreak to love. The pictures and age-appropriate language convey, with love and compassion, the six key messages parents need to share with their children. The program includes insights and tips from professional divorce-experienced therapists. Their insight is immeasurable in assisting with the challenges parents face.
Therapists, atto eys, mediators, educators, clergy and other professionals throughout the US and beyond have endorsed Rosalind’s book and innovative storybook concept. Her now-grown son, who was eleven at the time of the divorce, wrote the introduction to the book.

The holiday season can bring up painful memories of happier times, especially if you are divorced and have children.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Rosalind Sedacca
My purpose is to raise the consciosness of divorcing couples so they will stop, talk and create a caring plan of action before having that first crucial conversation with their children. I provide six essential messages every child needs to hear and understand at this time. Supported by my Child-Centered Divorce network, website, ezine, blog and other resources, I advice parents to make a conscious choice to create a collaborative, harmonious Child-Centered Divorce which will benefit the entire family for months, years and decades to come.
"When you mix two egos with dramatically differing perspectives, you’re bound to get an entanglement of emotions compounded by allegations, defensiveness and self-righteousness. Parents who get caught up in their own emotional dramas too often lose sight of who really gets damaged in the process – their children.”
“It’s not divorce per se that harms children. It’s the parent’s approach to divorce that makes all the difference in the short and long-term outcomes for the children.”
