The Journey: Divorce Through the Eyes of a Teen Student Workbook

Being a teen is hard enough...

Being a teen whose family is experiencing divorce is even harder.

Getting through life can be difficult at all ages, but dealing with your parents' divorce as a teen is particularly difficult. Teens have a much harder time both mentally and emotionally with stress and loss. Why is this?

• Teens' brains are still developing. The frontal lobe is the part of the brain that holds everything together with logic and reason. This isn't fully developed until a person reaches their mid-twenties.
• Teens are going through hormonal changes. This creates not only minor changes in mood but huge mood swings, as well.
• Teens are experiencing many different feelings and changes for the first time, and they feel them in a more heightened way.

Teens mainly spend their days surrounded by more teens who are just as emotionally unbalanced as they are.
