Divorced parents I have this friend and lately her parents divorced. At first she wouldn't tell me but then she did and she started crying. I feel really bad for her, how can i make her feel better? She keeps on saying that people will think that she is a divorced child.. But she really isn't. Shes so nice.

Be a good friend to her and just make her feel better by saying its ok and tell her not to care what people say or think...i have alot of friends who suffered from parents getting divorced and i was there 4 them and they r ok now so hope it works out well like it did 4 me :) --becky ]
Tell her that she is the same as she always was. She hasn't changed, nobody will think badly of her. Her parents just don't feel the same way bout eachother as they used to.PUT ME ON U'RE FRIENDS LIST AND TELL ME IF IT WORKS ]
Honestly, this is the one thing friends cannot erase. But the least you can do is confort her in her time of need. Its a rough age to have this happen, and theres nothing you can change about what happened, but stick by her side and she'll be grateful

Tell her that it's ok and say firmly but nicely she isn't a divorced child. Tell her that if her parents got a divorce then imagin how it would be if they didn't. They got a divorce so they don't love each other as much and it's for the best. I don't know her parents but I'm sure they might have try marrage councling and stuff and junk but at the end of all that then since they got a divorce it's better. If they had try'd to keep it together even after they might have got councling then they could have always been at each others throts and sy to your friend at like the end or something You'll be happier this way I'm sure of it.
I hope I helped.

just give her what she probably needs-a good friend who will listen and keep her secrets. just give her love and flood her with positive things. also tell her not to worry about what other people think, only what God thinks matters. ]
More than half of marriages end in divorce. It's no longer considered sinful or alienating, it's normal. My parents divorced when I was four. She's feeling overwhelmed and upset because of her parents divorcing, anyone going through that would. Do you know anyone else with divorced parents who could talk with her?
She'll meet many people with divorced parents, it's just a matter of time. Just sympathize with her. ]
just comfort her..shes not the only child that has a divorced parent,theres like half the population is divorced,remarried,or is cheating.so just help her through this and everything will be ok because there is a chance that they will be together again ]
try talking to her again.. just comfort her and if things wont get any better try talking to her parents or whoever shes lives with...just be a good friend ]
Just have a shoulder available for her to lean on. Let her talk to you about how she feels. Let her know that her parents problems are not hers and that it is not her fault. ]
hey...ok, my parents are even divorced. Many peoples parents are divorced and WILL get divorced. Just be there for her! Tell her that her parents divorce doesn't change the fact that they love her. Tell her that it's not like shes not part of a family. And make sure to remind her that they did this for HER too! Maybe her parents were fighting all the time and her parents didn't want her in that kind of enviornment. Just tell her everything will be ok and she can talk to you about anything!

Tell her she needs to get over it because lots of kids have parents who are divorced. ]
Let her know that many people have divorced parents and they aren't spoiled or divorced children. It just means that her parents are doing what will make them happy and people wouldn't really be able to tell by looking at her. It will be okay, people get divorced all the time and she won't be made to feel any less loved. Hope it helps! ]
You need to be there for her in every way you can support her in every way you can and whenever she feels the need to cry or talk about it tell her you'll be there for her.
Let her know that she won't change and people won't look at her diferently just because her parents are divorced. There are lots of people who have parents that are divorced.

You need to tell her that many, many children have divorced parents. I do. I don't know how old ou guys are but you sound around 12-15 and thats a really hard age to take the divorce of your parents. Tell her that people don't look at her differently because her parents are divorced, it doesn't change her personility. Yes, it will be hard for her and as a friend you need to understand and be there for her because it will be very hard. But life isn't fair and she will have obstacles in her life that she will have to overcome and unfortunatly thins is one of them. Tell her that you are there for her to talk and listen and she will get through it an people won't look at her differently. She couldn't control her parents getting divorced, it happens everyday. Make sure she knows that you are there for her.
Hope this helps!
