About Dear Child
Who We Are
Dear Child was created by researchers and writers who understand that family estrangement is one of the most painful, and least talked about, experiences a parent can face.
We've spent years studying the peer-reviewed research on estrangement, reconciliation, and ambiguous loss. Our tools aren't based on opinion or anecdote. They're grounded in what the science actually says about how families reconnect, and why some don't.
We built Dear Child because we believe parents who want to try again deserve practical, honest support, not platitudes. Every workbook, journal, and guide we publish is designed to meet you where you are tonight, and help you take one real step forward.
Over 7,000 parents have used our resources.
We're honored to be part of their journey.
