Suggestions on Putting Children First During A Divorce

Posted in Divorce Law, Family Law, General at 4:27 am by Administrator

This interesting article lists a few recommendations for individuals going through a divorce when there are children involved. Some of the suggestions mentioned in the article include the following:

• Don’t introduce a new partner to your children for months, perhaps even a year.
• Never ‘bad-mouth’ the other parent in front of the children. Always speak respectfully about your ex-partner in front of them.
• Never send messages to an ex-partner via the children
• Keeping a photograph of your ex-partner in your new home and encourage your children to talk about your ex-partner in your presence.
• Never listen in to your children’s phone calls with your ex-partner.
• Never seek forgiveness from your children – it’s your job to make things work, not to persuade them that your actions were alright.
