Summary
As the divorce rate soars among the baby-boomer generation, more and more people in their twenties and thirties are being faced with the divorce of their parents, and few resources exist to help them cope with their unique circumstances. Written by an award-winning journalist who has lived through her own parents' divorce, this practical, comforting guide includes advice on how to help your parents without getting caught in the middle; how to have tough conversations with your parents about money, property, and inheritance; and more.
