    Although it's hard, children seem to cope with the idea better than expected in most cases. They cry and then get on with life. Timescales are hard to grasp at this stage so not seeing someone for a few days feels the same as not for a few months - or forever. Although it's hard, they will get by and it won't scar them for life.
