About Michelle Shillings
Michelle Shillings lives in Washington State with her son She is a technical editor and a single mom. She credits the idea of this book to her son who struggles with his visitations between his mom’s house and his dad’s house
Ms. Shillings said "As a parent, we want to shield our children from pain – especially when we feel it is our fault that they are feeling the pain of divorce or separation. I knew my son was having a hard time with the new visitation schedule but I kept telling him that it was okay. He was too young to really explain how he felt."
Hopefully, this book will help parents get more understanding about how their children feel and allow everyone to accept this difficult situation.
Additionally, I Can't Want To is a must have book for parents who share the visitation of their children with another parent. Even in the best separation situations, one of the toughest things to be asked by a child is the reason they have to do visitations between the parents.I Can't Want To can be a tool to help parents both understand and validate their child's feelings in such difficult situations so that the child can begin to accept, adjust, and feel comfortable with visitations between their parents.
