The feelings

Jane: Sometimes I think I have all those feelings all at once!

Counsellor: And there are other feelings you might have, too. You might:

• get really upset when you hear your parents arguing or crying
• miss the parent you're not with
• feel different from your friends and from other families
• hope your parents will get back together
• feel like you have to choose one parent or the other, or
  take sides

The important thing to remember is that there are no right or
wrong feelings.
