Divorce affects many families.  Kidshealth.org has a useful article for teenagers who are dealing with divorce.  Many kids and teenagers feel responsible for their parents' divorce but it is never your fault!  It can be a very stressful time with parents bickering, changes in living arrangements, financial situation and perhaps legal action with custody battles etc.  
Kidshealth.org suggests that you:
* see a therapist or counsellor if you need to;
* talk to your parents about your concerns;
* try to keep your normal routine the same, for example, sporting commitments, music lessons, hanging out with friends etc (this can be difficult when you're living between two houses);
* take care of yourself - get plenty of sleep, exercise and eat right.
​For more information see the article at Kidshealth.org.
