Are you looking for direction and guidance to face the challenge of your parents splitting? Has your family changed since you went off to college and now you don't have a place to call home? It's hard to find the support you need to cope, and this workbook was created with you in mind. Whether you use it on your own or with a small group of friends, everything you need is in these pages to help you cope and prepare for what's ahead.

Shaken: What's Next When Your Parents Are Splitting Up? is a wonderful resource for anyone working with teenagers 13 and up, not only to help them process their feelings about their family dynamics, but to give them practical guidance about their future relationships and marriage.

Through activities and interactive exercises, they learn to handle emotions, process their anger, learn valuable communication skills to talk with parents, hear stories of other people's experiences with divorce, and look at what the Bible says about love and dating.

The teen years are a critical time to learn coping skills and to develop biblical and practical strategies for coping with interpersonal challenges. This dynamic and transformative workbook can be used in small groups or one-on-one with an adult mentor or family member. Also recommended for those beyond high school whose parents have split later in life. It's a gift you'll take with you, beyond high school and well into adulthood.
