okay so how can parents best protect
0:02
their children's mental health when they
0:04
are going through this process I mean I
0:06
always recommend to people who are going
0:08
through a divorce get your your child if
0:10
they don't have a therapist already in
0:11
with the therapist that's going to give
0:13
that child um a safe space to be able to
0:17
express themselves to be able to give I
0:19
had one therapist call it once Tools in
0:21
a toolbox and I thought it was such a
0:22
great analogy give that child that
0:25
toolbox goes with them everywhere cuz
0:26
it's up here give them a tool to where
0:28
if they're in a situation and they're
0:30
feeling really overwhelmed because now
0:32
they have to live in two households they
0:34
have a a good way to handle that and or
0:37
you know be able to advocate for
0:38
themselves um make sure children know
0:40
their only role is to be a child you
0:43
know they're not your confident they
0:45
don't have to fix anything between you
0:46
and Dad their only role is to be
0:48
children and it's up to you as parents
