DIVORCE AND CHILDREN
HOW TO KEEP YOUR KIDS AT THE CENTER, AND NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR DIVORCE
Divorce can be so scary and divisive but there is almost always one thing at least that people can agree on from day one of the process. They BOTH love their children and want a process that let's them thrive in the new family paradigm.
The devil is in the details however and many parents find it difficult to nagivate the restructuring of their family without conflict and often, parents' own difficult emotions can cloud the decision making process.
On Divorce & Beyond we have made it a priority to bring support and resources to parents so that they can create a child-centered process and to help them unite behind the common goal of doing what is best for their kids!
