Guiding Children Through Divorce: Emotional and Financial Strategies with Marcus Higgs
Jamie M. Lima welcomes Marcus Higgs to explore the complexities of divorce, focusing on children's reactions and the importance of building trust. Marcus shares insights on teaching financial principles to children and managing emotions and relationships during this challenging time. They discuss the scientific definition of hope and its role in emotional financial management, along with strategies for positive communication and psychology. Legal implications and the importance of maintaining respectful post-divorce communication are highlighted.
Key Points
- Understand that every child processes divorce differently, and it's crucial to provide them with emotional support tailored to their unique needs.
- Effective communication with preteens about financial changes involves being honest yet reassuring, making sure they understand they are not to blame for adult decisions and transitions.
- Involving children in age-appropriate ways during financial discussions can help them feel included and less anxious, while also teaching them valuable life skills.
