Top tips for telling your family about your divorce

On Behalf of | Sep 25, 2018 | Divorce

Divorce is nothing to be embarrassed about. In fact, it takes courage to move down this path as a means of bettering your life. Even so, many people facing divorce are afraid to tell their family what’s going on.

Here are some tips that can help ease the stress of telling your family about your divorce:

  • Write it out: When you know what you want to say and how you want to say it, it’s much easier to get everything out in the open.
  • Choose the right environment: Telling your loved ones about your divorce on social media is not the best idea. Instead, choose the right time and place to do this in person.
  • Don’t talk to everyone the same way: The manner in which you tell your parents about your divorce may not be the same as your siblings or extended family.
  • Reach out for support: You’re not telling your loved ones about your divorce because you have no choice. You’re doing so because you want their support during this difficult time. Don’t be afraid to share this with your family. You may be surprised at how many people step up to assist you.

It’s never easy to tell your family about your divorce, but that doesn’t mean you should hide from this conversation. It’s better to get it out in the open as soon as possible, all with the idea that it will improve your situation.

From there, you’ll feel better about tackling the divorce process and all the changes it will bring to your life now and in the future.
