Regardless of the time of year, co-parenting has a way of bringing unique challenges to your life. When the holiday season rolls around, don't be surprised if you're searching for answers to a variety of questions.
Fortunately, following a few key co-parenting tips will help you avoid any real issues during this time of the year. Here are five things to keep in mind:
You should expect to run into a variety of co-parenting issues, as raising a child with an ex-spouse is not always easy. Even when you get along relatively well, there will still be times when you run into challenges.
Here are several co-parenting issues that could come to light at some point:
When you find yourself in the middle of a divorce, it's easy to turn all your attention to the process itself. From property division to child custody, there is no shortage of details that require your attention.
All of that pressure means that it's easy to look past how important it is to maintain your health. If you don't focus on caring for yourself, you may soon find yourself feeling ill, thus making it more difficult to remain efficient and productive.
Depending on the age of your children, there's a good chance they'll have a variety of questions if you decide to divorce your spouse. Although this decision will impact your children in many ways, there are things you can do to ensure their stability in the days, weeks and months to come.
Here are five of the most common questions children ask about divorce:
Your spouse ends your marriage, which was never a very good partnership. Or maybe it was, until it suddenly wasn't. As such, it is natural for you to also feel like you are the better parent and that your kids should live with you.
If you find yourself in this position, it is important to remember that someone does not have to be a good spouse to be great parent.
Divorcing with small children is never easy for parents. You probably worried about the impact of the divorce on the children. There's also a good chance that you worried about how this change to your family will affect your relationship with your kids.
If your ex receives custody, that typically means that you will see your children last and will also need to pay child support. Paying child support is an important parental responsibility. It helps ensure your children have everything they need for a healthy and productive childhood and adolescence.
