Children depend on relationships with the adults in their lives to make sense of early experiences, and to build healthy interpretations of what is happening around them. This story offers parents an opportunity to talk with their children about the stresses inevitable in a divorce, to spell out the differences happening in their daily lives and to provide assurances about the certainties that will sustain their lives. This book's rhythmic, repetitive reassurance is a reflection of the ongoing need children have for feeling safe. It opens a door for listening to a child's view of his experiences, for nurturing constructive thoughts and for soothing fears. They Both Love You can help foster the resilience children need to deal with many life changes, including the changes following a divorce.
