Hughes & Fredenburg: Gray Divorce

from Conversations with Joan Hosted by CYACYL

Today, more couples are divorcing later in life. As the divorce rate for older adults soars, so too does the number of adult children who are experiencing parental divorce. And these children are often overlooked. According to Dr. Carol Hughes and Bruce Fredenburg, whenever the children of gray divorce express their feelings and experiences, the most important people in their lives frequently ignore and dismiss them. This leaves them in different stages of shock, fear, and dramatic change, feeling misunderstood and painfully alone. Dr. Hughes is a marriage and family therapist and family-focused divorce professional. Bruce has been a California licensed marriage and family therapist for more than 30 years and is board certified in clinical hypnosis. They are the co-authors of the book, Home will Never Be the Same Again: A Guide for Adult Children of Gray Divorce. Music: www.purple-planet.com Show site: www.cyacyl.com
