Solving the Problem of Miscommunication
Over the last several months we have covered a lot of different topics relating to child and divorce. Today I would like to discuss the topic of miscommunication. Miscommunication is a big problem that, unfortunately, is experienced by a lot of divorced families. This blog will help you identify why is happens and how you can stop it from happening in your family.
The first type of miscommunication that can occur is miscommunications between divorced parents. In this situation miscommunication can be caused by a lot of things including: reluctance to communicate with each other, strategic miscommunication, deception and unclear communication channels. To prevent miscommunications between you and your parenting partner, you need to (1) focus on what is good for your kids, (2) create a standard communication system that transmits clear communication between the two of you, and (3) that is focused on open and honest communications.
Another type of miscommunication that can occur within a divorced family is between parents and their kids. Miscommunication between parents and children is not specific to divorced families. Parent/child miscommunications typically occur because an open system of communication has not been established, because kids don’t always deliver messages effectively and because parents sometimes forget to keep their kids in the loop. One way that you can improve the communication effectiveness within your divorced family is to establish a system of communication that makes it easy to deliver messages from one person to the next and that also encourages open and honest transmissions.
Children and divorced parents both need to work on communicating with one another. Miscommunication is a big problem that even can make adult children of divorce difficult for everyone involved. Return next week to the Children and Divorce Blog, to discuss Earth Day activities for divorced families.
having been through this myself as an adult with children I have fully seen the result of deceptive communication. As well as thinking of the children though, we must remember that we are emotional beings and splits are never easy.
Matttew, I agree 100% with you. See my comment above that was written in response to what Andy had to say.
I’m glad someone post a blog like this, we focus always on economy crisis but we don’t even know there is more need our attention, I hope some will scattered this and advertise this is very helpful and to those kids who are the number one affected.
It’s so important that two parents try to get on (as much as possible) after divorce. It makes it so much easier in the long run, and certainly helps children. They don’t want to see their parents not getting on, so being amicable towards one another will make their lives (and your’s) a lot easier.
Divorce hurts the children the most. I came from a divorced parents and it was a devastating thing to experience. It dissolved my belief and trust in relationships.
Parents should consider what their children would feel
These are the children who are mostly affected as a result of their parent’s divorce. Miscommunication or a lack of communication may lead your child stressed and demoralized. Necessary care should be taken by the parents to their child even after divorce.
Babies need special care specially from their parent. So, parent should not create a communication gap with their child even though they are divorced.
Children can have a negative reaction towards their parents getting divorce, but staying together for the sake of the children doesn’t often work. They can sense things aren’t right and (especially if the parents are obviously not getting on) this can affect them even more.

I think marriage is the most wonderful thing which happen in the life and people did very shameful thing by getting divorce and i think divorce not only affect the husband and wife but also badly affect the whole family.
