I am a step mother, so how children deal with divorce is something I've witnessed first hand and thought about a lot.

Those who have gone through a divorce know the pain and special challenges of raising a child under such circumstances.

Divorce isn't just the person, it's everything that goes with it - your kids, the adjustment, everything.

Divorce is one of the key predictors of poverty for a child growing up in a home that's broken.

India has progressed to a stage where a divorcee status hardly matters. What matters is that you raise a positive, independent, well-behaved and intelligent child.

Often, parents feel overwhelmed. Many must accomplish the whole job single-handedly while bearing all of the emotional pain of divorce.

Divorce is hard and painful and complicated, and something you have to grow through.

Divorce in and of itself, and with children, is devastating.

You can't underestimate how traumatic divorce is for the children.

Of the many horrors of divorce, the most egregious is that it robs a kid of the best of both worlds. Dads can do many things that even the best moms can't, and vice versa.
