Your Feelings About Divorce

My parents have been split up since January and my dad tells me that he still loves my mom. When I try to hint to my mom that he still loves her, she always tells me that she doesn't feel the same way about him. How can I tell my dad what she tells me?

My parents have decided to go and get a divorce. They want my sister and me to go to counseling with them. It's not my problem, why do I have to go?

I'm a 15 year old girl. My dad passed away when I was 8 and my mom recently remarried. Ever since she got married I've turned into a very angry person. I don't like doing anything anymore, and the only time I am happy is when I am with my boyfriend. I hate everything , I'm always tired and I've lost a lot of weight. I cry at least twice a week over stupid things. My friend thinks I am depressed, am I?

My parents got divorced about six years ago. They got back together about two years ago. Before the divorce I had a great relationship with my dad, but now I can’t stand him! What happened with our relationship?

My mom and step-dad are getting a divorce. I don’t want my step-dad out of my life. My sister doesn’t seem affected by this, but it’s really bothering me. What can I do to make this situation better?

I have a dad who adopted me, but I am also interested in meeting my biological father. My mother always avoids the subject when I mention it to her. How can I find out who he is?

My parents have been divorced since 1999. Before my mom and I moved out, my dad and I didn't have the best relationship, but we talked. Ever since they separated, it's like he divorced me too. He intentionally does things to hurt my feelings. I feel like he doesn't care enough to try to work things out. What should I do?

I am a 15-year-old boy. I live with my dad and stepmother and we just can't seem to "click.” Sometimes things seem so awkward. I want to be closer with my stepmother but how do I do that?

My parents have split up because of things my dad did. My mother is taking our family to counseling. During the first session, the counselor asked me confronting questions about what happened with my dad and made my cry. Is this normal counseling behavior? I thought it was supposed to help, but after the session I felt sick and dirty. I don't know if I should go back.

My parents have been separated since I was 6. I live with my mom and sometimes my dad gets angry/jealous and asks questions, like why I don’t live with him. It makes me feel uncomfortable, but I love him and don’t want to hurt his feelings. What should I do?

I am 14. My parents are divorced and my grandfather has died. He was the one that really loved me and now I feel rejected. I tried to get close to my grandma, but she doesn't understand girls and I don't think she likes me. My parents don't even look at me when I talk to them. I give up on everyone!

I just found out from my boyfriend that my mom is dating this one kid's dad. The bad thing is, my mom is still married! She has five kids and I don't see how she could do this. What should I do?

I’m 13, I tried to take some pills, but I have no idea what they are! It turned out they were harmless. I really want to kill myself! I don’t go to school even though we moved to Australia about six months ago. I miss all my friends from South Africa. My mum and I don’t get along even though we are really close. We always argue. I gained about 25 pounds and now I’m fat and ugly. Should I live?

My mother and stepfather are getting divorced. My stepfather and I never got along. I don't want to be a part of the divorce. I don't want to be asked questions by lawyers or judges. If I’m asked to go before a judge or lawyer, do I have the right to say I don't want to talk to them (I’m 14)? How should I explain this to my mom?

My parents were divorced when I was 6. I still live with the dream that both my mother and father will get back together! Unfortunately, my father recently re-married. When they told me, I hated the idea and I fought and argued with the bride-to-be, which made all of our lives miserable. How does the pain go away, how does the dream go away?

I'm 15 years old and my parents are divorced, I live with my mom. My dad has people watch me since he lives in a different city than I do. I’ve missed about four visitations with him because of sports. He now EXPECTS me to visit him for the WHOLE summer and cancel my plans. Plus, he is forbidding me to get a job. Is there anyway of talking to him and explaining the way I feel about this? It makes me very upset and I cry whenever I think about it. I've tried many times, but I’m scared he’ll get mad at me. Is there any law about visitation rights I should know about?

My mom and dad are divorced. My mom asked me to stay with her. What should I do now? I want to stay with her, but I'm afraid my dad will angry with me. My brother said I must discuss this problem with my father. What do I tell my dad ?
