Once upon a time there was my 1 family: my mommy, my daddy, my sister, my brother and me. We thought our mommy and daddy were happy. We thought we were happy. We were one big happy family, until we weren’t.
In spring, daddy moved out. My daddy’s parents didn’t speak with mommy. Mommy tried to put on a happy face, but we knew better. My brother, my sister and I were sad. Daddy was sad. Mommy was sad. My grandma and grandpa and my aunts and my uncles were sad. Even some of my teachers acted sad around me.
That spring we became My2Families! There was my mommy’s family and there was my daddy’s family. Nobody spoke and everybody was angry.
That spring, shortly after daddy moved out, daddy came across the software app, My2Families. At first, it scared me, but I was used to always looking things up. So many new things to learn about. A different home, different bedrooms, and different beds. Meals were different too. Now daddy tries to cook. He’s OK but I like mommy’s cooking better. Daddy can be more fun, but we don’t have time to play anymore. My sister and brother keep to themselves. I feel so alone.
Now I log onto our co-parenting app to see where I’m living tonight and who’s picking me up from school. OH, I forgot, I have a dentist appointment after school. Mommy and daddy forgot to tell me. My math teacher wants to speak with mommy and daddy about my grades. I can send one note to both mommy and daddy. I guess I need to do my homework. Granny’s birthday. I need to call her. Glad I saw it on the Family Calendar.
Mommy is so frustrating. I wanted to buy some new spring clothes, but she always says she’s too busy right now. I think I’ll stay in my room. Mommy wants me to see a therapist. I don’t want to. My sister says it’s ok to cry.
Moms and dads: Fiction can feel quite real and your children have strong emotions that can trigger poor concentration and bad behavior.
