Artful film gets to the heart of a sensitive issue: divorce
When HBO producers approached Abrakadoodle nearly three years ago, they explained how HBO was creating a family special, “Don’t Divorce Me! Kids Rules for Parents on Divorce.” They were looking for children who had experienced divorce for possible interviews for inclusion in the program. Additionally, Abrakadoodle conducted art lessons at a variety of national locations in which children of all backgrounds and family situations were encouraged to express their feelings about family using art and written messages. Abrakadoodle sent artwork and messages to HBO for possible inclusion in their production.

We recently heard from the director/producer, who said, “We are happy to let you know that our HBO family special will air September 20^th. The heart of the film is the kids – their thoughts, written messages, artwork, songs and sometimes simply their beautiful faces. Thank you for helping us to find such wonderful kids and for sharing your expertise with us.”

For anyone who is experiencing or knows of friends or family dealing with divorce, this program offers a kid-friendly perspective you may appreciate.
