Sometimes parents don’t talk to each other much after a divorce.

They might ask *you* to tell the other parent
something. That’s not your job!

🚫 Not your job:

  • Telling Mom what Dad said, or vice versa

  • Answering grown-up questions about their problems

  • Feeling like you have to pick a side

  • Taking care of how a parent feels

💡 What you can say:

  • “I don’t want to be in the middle.”

  • “You should ask Mom/Dad yourself.”

  • “You should talk to a friend or other adult about your feelings instead of me.”
