I Have Divorced Parents
Sometimes it's ok to have divorced parents.
You get two Christmas's and two birthdays.
My parents divorced when I was in 8th grade (long time ago).
I didn't talk about it while it was happening.
I remember my teacher asking how many of us had divorced parents.
I sat in my seat frozen, because I didn't know what to do.
Should I raise my hand, how many people know my parents were seperated?
That was a very memorable moment.
What was interesting was, I chose to stay with my dad, and
my brother and sister stayed with my mom. Actually my brother switched around for awhile.
My mom and i are more friends now than when I was growing up.
I hated the movie Mrs. Doughtfire with Robin Williams.
Why? Because I had to watch it when my parents were getting a divorce.
I hope this story helps others going through a divorce.
If you are in high school or middle school, you should know,
I've been there, been through that.
Life goes on.
