It outlines the five stages of grief children may experience (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance) and how their needs change based on their developmental level (tactile for ages 0-2, reassurance for ages 3-5, knowledge for ages 6-12, independence for ages 13+). It also describes different parenting styles that can occur and tips for making weekend visits with non-custodial parents as smooth as possible such as taking initiative, providing structure, acceptance, and helping with transitions.
