Intro

Hey bloggers. Our blog spot is going to be about children and how they are voiceless when it comes to their parents being separated or divorced.We are going to acknowledge you all with the divorce and separation rates, how kids struggle and what they struggle. Also, how the kid(s) feel during the divorce or separation. (If you have any other good research you think we should mention feel free to add in a comment.) We will be posting up some interviews later on. However, for now we will be posting up research.
