THE REVIEW ITSELF:

Terry McNiff’s Why Breakups Are So Hard: How We Can Help explains how separation between parents can turn family life into a court-centered process that many people enter before they understand its consequences. Written for parents with children, the book presents one central message: adult conflict after a breakup can follow children for years, so parents need practical guidance before anger influences legal choices. McNiff shows how court procedures can confuse people already under stress, especially when hearings are delayed, money is withheld, accusations become public, and children are pulled into adult disputes. The book calls for earlier education through visual guidance that helps parents understand the consequences before conflict harms their children. It offers separated parents a way to see what conflict can cost before the damage spreads through the family.

Terry McNiff approaches Why Breakups Are So Hard with the voice of somebody who has spent years watching families walk into court with anger they have not yet learned how to manage. McNiff keeps bringing the reader back to one hard truth: children continue living inside the emotional climate adults create after separation. That idea gives the book its urgency. McNiff explains family court procedures in plain language that parents can use immediately during mediation conversations or custody preparation. A section on decision trees helps readers slow down before reacting impulsively during legal conflict. Another section shows parents how naming emotions can lower hostility before discussions spiral into personal attacks. Research concerning trauma plus brain function supports the practical advice throughout the guide. Parents entering separation proceedings will find useful direction here, especially when communication has become emotionally charged around children. Very highly recommended.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Terry McNiff began his career working with David Kagon, who won the original Marvin (palimony) case.  Dave won his next palimony trial, with Terry assisting.  Later, Dave persuaded Terry to co-write the local lawyers’ Reference Book chapter “Family Law Techniques and Trial Tips”.  Terry revised the chapter yearly, striving to persuade lawyers and judges to better prepare and serve people forced into family court.  Terry eventually realized he was failing to persuade judges and lawyers, but he wasn’t ready to give up.

Terry had learned that breakup grief and anger temporarily impaired parents, and court rigidity and structure encouraged conflict that overwhelmed parents.  He created idea pictures of key issues clients faced — so they could see, focus, and refer to them whenever necessary.  To help all separating couples, Terry created a visual guide, and later a reference guide, to show everyone why separating parents need our help, and how to help, for the sake of the children.
