When you are a child the parents seem to be the pillars of your world. When you grow up, you suppose foundation to be permanent. Therefore, later in life when your parents decide to separate it may be disorienting--even though you may live apart, have another career, or have other family. You are supposed to digest it as an adult, but you will not get less shocked, grieving, and confused. You can end up in the tricky phone calls, split holidays or even emotional hostility. To deal with the divorce of your parents as an adult does not mean covering up that it is painful, but demonstrating that you have control over your emotions, limits and establishing new norms of family structure.
