We’re invited to a birthday party. Cerys Bradley is throwing it for one lucky audience member, someone who’s a child of divorce, because when you’re a kid and your parents part ways, everyone is nice to you. But if it happens when you’re an adult, as it did for Bradley recently, no one tries to make you feel better.
The party is packed with fun distractions – pass the parcel, pin the tail on the donkey, balloon modelling – yet Bradley can’t help but overthink their parents’ divorce. How should they feel about it? Is it OK to insult their dad’s new partner? How do adults deal with this?
