Are there classic stages to divorce/separating?

I found these links, so it looks there are definitely "stages."

I'd give yourself some time to breath, grieve and be there for your children. GL.

I had to take a parent education class to get divorced, and they explain that the stages one goes through in a divorce are the same that one goes through after someone dies--denial, anger, then acceptance.
