here once was a boy named Ralph.He was ten years old.One day his parents sat him down and said that they had to tell him something.They said they were getting a divorce.Ralph was real upset.He thought it was all his fault. He got a phone call a few days later, it was his dad.His dad asked him if he wanted to go and live with him.Ralph didn't know what to do.All that week hefelt really bad. Soon his grades started dropping and his behavior started changing.One of his teachers noticed that he had been acting depressed so sheasked him about it.He wasn't quite sure if he should tell her yet but he decided to.He loved both his parents equally and didn't want to hurt there feelings.His teacher explaind to him that it was alright to have these feelings and that he should talk it over with both his parents seperatly. He did that and they both understood how he felt.They all made arrangemets so that on three days a week he could see his dad and four days a week he could see his mom.They ! ! both explained that just because they had divorced each other it didn't mean they were divorcing him. Ralph now understands that you can live through a divorce and that his parents love him very very much.
