Would You Rather Work Through Co-Parenting Issues or Fight Your Way Through Them?
Being able to communicate with each other effectively is key to having a successful co-parenting relationship.
Even after you are apart, you are still the parents to your children.
As parents, you still have to find ways to align and coordinate logistics on the decisions and issues that are important to your childrens’ lives and well-being.
These can include the day-to-day requirements of managing schedules, logistics, and appointments as well as more far-reaching issues such as medical decisions, educational choices, religion, and a host of other important considerations.
How you approach all of this as co-parents will impact not only your relationships with each other as co-parents and former partners, but also your relationships with your kids.
The way you work through your disagreements will set the stage for how you work together, and will impact how your children will deal with the conflicts in their lives.
Our hope is that these tips and the accompanying worksheet will help you work through things together, with less stress and conflict.
A little bit about us and what we do.
Founded by Erik M Feig, an accomplished attorney and parent of neurodivergent children, Feig Mediation Group helps parents and families reduce the stress of working through their differences about important issues.
Whether parents are separated, divorcing, divorced, or in a blended family situation, our goal is to provide the support needed to create paths to more positive outcomes. Mediation is about making decisions about the future, instead of staying mired in the past.
We have a a particular interest in working with the unique issues and challenges facing parents in families where neurodiversity, disabilities, and special needs are factors. We bring a practical, real-world approach to help parents engage each other more constructively and with less conflict when decisions impacting their children are required. Visit our blog to learn more about ways a mediator can help parents in neurodiverse families.
Mediation gives you a chance to voice your hopes, questions, and concerns so that you can then — together and more collaboratively — create the framework for a mediated agreement and plan that works for you. All of this is done without the added drama and high costs of going through a drawn out, win-lose adversarial legal process.
Every family is different.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer or plan.
But it is possible to come to an agreement on your plan in mediation.
