Divorce Acrostic

Dashing of hopes, disappointment, despair, discouragement

Internal struggles, I statements, 

Vicious misunderstandings, vicious rumours

Outrageous miscommunications

Reasonable mourning

Children suffer the most, feeling they created the situation

Everyone's nightmare,

I guess half the population (at least in America) experiences it at some time or other but when you take into account the children affected, that number goes up to probably 90%!!! I never divorced but am the product of a blended family!

I always feel sorry for the children. They always say to me "If I had been better, it would not have happened." They think they are all powerful, and take the blame hard and completely.

Divorce is a difficult thing, to be avoided when possible!

I do believe it is hard for everyone. I know a man in his fifties whose parents divorced when he was in his fifties, and it devastated him.
