• Your Children and Divorce With your help They Can Thrive

      13 comments

    Divorce brings on so many challenges, especially when you have children, whether they are infants, toddlers, school age or adults. I know, because after 27 years of marriage I found myself single.

    During the divorce process I wrote my graduate school thesis on what other…. The Effects of Divorce on Adult Children. The research at that time did not exist. So I studied the effects on younger children and then interviewed adult children of divorce. To my surprise the affect was the same.

    When my paper was returned to me, my professor commented, “Either people will think you are crazy or brilliant!” Why? Because the thesis designed a program to help parents to cooperatively co-parent their children. Would you believe that was back in 1993, not so long ago… and this was considered a new concept.

    Well, now many people talk about how important it is for parents to be able to cooperatively co-parent, but few actually walk their talk. The purpose of this blog is to provide a place for you to give voice to practical ways to accomplished a positive coexistence with your former spouse and to help others do the same because when you are family to your children you always are family to each other.
