Summary Note "Talking to children about parental separation and divorce is often difficult for adults and is sometimes overlooked or avoided. Often children struggle to understand and make sense of their feelings and reactions after family break-up. This book aims to facilitate careful listening, discussion and sharing between a trusted adult and a child. It is important for children to hear and understand words like 'grief' and 'grieving', 'loss and 'death'. During discussions with children, and in answering their questions, adults need to provide open and honest responses appropriate to the child's age and level of understanding. 'It's just different now' will provide children with an opportunity to reflect on and talk about some of their thoughts, feelings and responses which are commonly associated with grief." -Author's Note to Adult Readers.
