Divorce is an unexpected journey that affects not only the couple involved but also the children caught in the crossfire. Recently, a conversation with one of my teenage swimmers opened my eyes to the perspective of children in high-conflict divorces. Her candid words about her parents’ selfishness and the court-ordered visitation schedule left me wondering how my own children felt amidst our struggles. It became clear that children in these situations often witness more than we realize and bear the weight of their parents’ battles. As parents, it is crucial to prioritize our children’s well-being, establish healthy boundaries, and provide them with the necessary support to navigate these challenging times. By considering their perspective, we can create a more empathetic and supportive environment that helps them thrive despite the circumstances.
