divorce
My gramma just died a week ago, and my parents just told me yesterday that they are getting a divorce. All of this just seems like too much for me to handle. I have incredible faith in God .. so I pray to him ... but sometimes that doesnt seem like enough? How can I deal with this? I dont really wanna talk to my friends about it ... cus all their parents are still 2gether, what should i do?

Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
first off tell your parents that this is too much for you to handel and tell em how you feel,if that dont work bear in mind that your not the only person with parents that are divorced its their life. imajine you had problems with your wife or husband that were unbearable...youd leave him or her and itd be hard but even HARDER to have your kids cryin about it..my parents are divorced too cmon its their life

Keep praying and talking to God. Maybe you can get a counciler. If you want, you could talk to one of your parents and tell them how you feel - let it all out - . I feel so bad for you right now - - - - i wish i could help more! Best wishes to you.

talk to a priest? or a nun? or some other person you'd think understand.
or...
try blogging about it. you'll feel good about getting your emotions out, and you can help other people in similar situations out.

I do feel so badly for you. My parents never divorced, but my father died when I was 14. This was a really difficult time in my life and I can understand what you are going through. I'm going to do for you what people didn't do for me when I was going through this traumatic experience. I'm going to hook you up to some websites that are information sites as well as support groups. There is also a group called Alateen. This is a support group that is located in every state. They can help you with a myriad of problems including coping with the divorce of your parents. This is a free group. They usually have meetings all over a city every night of the week. You can find one that is located near you and start going once a week. I'm sure if you go to your parents and ask them if you can go to these meetings they will let you do it. They will understand you need to work some things out for yourself. If at first you don't feel comfortable going to these meetings there are these websites I've included. As I mentioned some of them are on line support groups. Get involved with these until you feel comfortable going and talking to people face to face. It's real important for you right now to get together with other people who are experiencing or have experienced what you are going through. Only they can help you to understand what is going to happen and what to expect. They can answer your questions. Good Luck to you.

i'm really sorry about all of this. i can't even imagine what you're going through. i can see why you wouldn't want to go to your friends, maybe you can get some professional help? (guidance couselor, school adult, psychologist or just anyone who is willing to talk to you and make you feel better.) in the mean time, just try to do some things to keep your mind off it. things will get better.

even if your friends parents arent split up, they are still your friends and will comfort you. I think it would be a good idea to talk to people with divorced parents. talk to people online, or even start up a group in school. i remember we had something like that in elementary school called "bannana split". it was a group where the kids would talk to each other about how their parents were split up. a lot of people go through what you do, your not alone..maybe talk to an aquaintance at school..a more distant friend, surely soommeeone you know has divorced parents. well im always here for you, leave me an inbox if you would like

i can tell that your going through alot of pain the best thing for you to do is confront your parents there going through the same pain you are if you talk to them maybe you can come up with a solution to your problem your parents will totally understand even if they do get a divorce you'll feel as if your still one family if you just talk to them.

wow, it does seem like your going through alot right now, but i'm a christain too, and also have or at least try to have faith in god,and i understand it does'nt feel like enough sometimes, but i assure you god is always there with you!!, and my parents are also divorced, but it is actually not as bad as people make it sound,but i wont lie it is a bit hard to chose who you are going to spend your holidays with every year, and i would actually talk to your friends about it, and see their spin on it, but don't stress yourself out too much about it, I hope i could help you out even if it's just a little bit, and i'm always here if you have more ??? about anything ^_^
