Many parents are unaware that there are healthier ways to divorce – meaning other than the court system. Often times spouses are still on civil, speaking terms when they decide to divorce. Many times when otherwise civil spouses choose the traditional, litigated route to divorce, it often drives a wedge between them. This can be very damaging to their co-parenting relationship and cause harm to the children – who are often caught in the middle. Many times, spouses choose mediation because they learn just how important it is to “keep it civil for the children”, “maintain healthy co-parenting relationships post divorce”, and “avoid draining the family finances”. Here is a candid video depicting “Dear Mom & Dad” which was written by Monica Epperson, founder of The Child of Divorce.
