Kids and divorce
When I was little my mom and dad were not happy together. One day Mom told my brother and me that she was leaving Dad and said we could go with her. We wanted to be with her, so we went with Mom, and Dad lived in another state.
I felt very sad a lot of the time. But I didn't want anyone to know. So, I would climb a tree in the yard of the house where we were living. It was quiet in the tree. I would climb the tree so that I could be alone and think and pray.
