Hi Angele,

I’m glad I was able to give you some kind of perspective on your daughter’s situation.  Unfortunately, it is an all too familiar story.  I hope your daughter will be able to proceed in a matter of fact way and deal with her divorce in the shortest time possible.  Aside from this, she will need to go through a grieving process for the ‘loss’ she has suffered and you may need to be the shoulder she cries on.  Stay as calm as you can – not easy when your children are upset – and give her the time she needs to mentally and emotionally adapt to the ending of her marriage before she moves on to the next chapter in her life.

Wishing you both well.

Peggy
