Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would start by explaining to the student that he is not a bad kid and that the divorce was in no way his fault. I would also notify the parents that the student is putting this blame onto himself. I would provide the students with ways he can channel his negative feelings and also tell him he is always welcome to discuss his feelings with you or a school psychologist.
