Splitting up with your partner is a very stressful time. Not only do you have to cope with the pain and upset of separating but, suddenly, you are faced with lots of uncertainty about the future: Who will look after the children? When will I get to see them? What will happen to the family home? What will I live on? Even after all these things are worked out, changes in your life later on may mean that you need to think about them all over again – as the children get older, perhaps, or if you meet someone new. -->more http://www.lfms.co.uk/
