Separation, divorce, or living between two homes for other reasons can be deeply unsettling for children. As parents, we want to support their emotional well-being and future outcomes, ensuring they feel secure, loved, and understood. But finding the right words to validate their feelings and broach the topic can feel overwhelming -how do we help them feel at home in both places without making them feel divided? That’s where Lucy the Loved Mermaid comes in.
