Synopsis

A workbook for separating parents to help provide a framework upon which to create a parenting plan that helps them co-parent successfully after divorce. Key words for building a strong parenting plan include child centered, collaboration, communication, and conflict management. We know kids do best when parents understand their children's deep desire to stay connected to and be cared for by both of them. A skillful parenting plan describes the structure, predictability, and rhythm that ensure both parents can emerge from the uncertainty of separation/divorce into stable two-home family life. The agreement and guidelines set out in a parenting plan establish clarity about responsibilities between parents, specify essential co-parenting tasks, and minimize unnecessary conflict.
