Hey, What About Me?
When Home Breaks, A Kid's Guide to Surviving Divorce
Nan S. Famular, PJ. Ch(Retired)(0)
About
Written by a retired judge and divorce attorney - and a mom of five - for kids who need real answers, not empty reassurance.
When a parent says "we need to talk," a kid's whole world can feel like it's caving in. When Home Breaks doesn't promise to fix that. Instead, it walks straight into the hard stuff: the news, the tears, the anger, the guilt - and gives kids practical, honest tools to get through it.
Drawing on decades in family court, Nan S. Famular speaks directly to kids in a voice that's warm, direct, and never condescending. This isn't a book about making divorce okay. It's a book about making it survivable - and helping kids hold on to themselves while their family changes shape.
Inside, your child will find honest, age-appropriate guidance on:
The book's most powerful section is a real-world Q&A pulled directly from questions kids have asked - from awkward haircuts and unwanted messages between parents, to tougher topics like alienation and safety at home. Each one gets a clear, judge-tested answer a kid can actually use.
Two messages repeat throughout: always speak up for yourself, and always stay true to yourself. Because a child going through divorce doesn't have to go through it alone - and shouldn't have to figure it out by guessing.
A must-have resource for: kids ages 8-14 navigating parental divorce or separation, parents and stepparents looking to open the conversation, and counselors, therapists, and teachers supporting kids through family change.
