SPLIT: The EARLY Years gives us the children's perspective on divorce... no adults, no experts… just kids speaking the powerful truth of what is on their minds and in their hearts as their families change. Their wisdom, candor, and humor give courage to other children and encourage parents to make better choices as they move through divorce.
You're about to watch SPLIT: The EARLY Years, with guidance from divorce-parenting expert Christina McGhee. Christina will introduce the film, and return after the film to offer importance guidance on:
• Sharing the film with your children
• Creating the best viewing environment for kids
• Having conversations with your kids after the film
• What to do if your kids don't want to talk
We encourage you to have a look at The SPLIT Film Guide before sharing the film with your children. The GUIDEhelps kids make connections between the SPLIT kids and their own families, and offers prompts to jumpstart meaningful conversations with kids. The Guide in hardcopy, or a PDF download of the GUIDE, is available HERE.
The presentation is 35 minutes, and will be available to you and your family for 72 hours.
We hope the stories of these 12 amazing kids offer you helpful insights to better support your children as your family changes.
