Divorce always affects children. Common emotional responses are anger, anxiety, fear, guilt and sadness. Learning to co-parent during and after a divorce and helping children emotionally cope with divorce can be difficult especially if you are experiencing communication problems. Remember though if you have children together you are always going to be in each other’s lives.
What do you want your children to remember about this time in their lives? How do you want your children to view you and how you handled the divorce?
This is the time you need to step up, take responsibility, and be the adult. Your children need to be your priority and come first. Collaborate and work together as co-parents by helping children emotionally cope with divorce. This emotional well-being and stability will be what your children need. Following are some co-parenting tips.
Today joint custody has become predominant in being the best choice for families and children of divorce. As long as both parents have no serious issues that would endanger the children.
When parents can cooperate and raise the children together it is a winning situation for everyone. The goal of co-parenting is to meet the children’s emotional and mental health needs. It provides the children with security and the stability of having both parents in their lives.
