Do you co-parenting post divorce?
What happens when you interact with your former spouse?
Are you angry, fearful, upset and defensive? Or are you
centered, focused and neutral? Are you proactive or reactive?
Do you have your business hat on, or are you the scream
machine? Are you reminded of your unresolved feelings you
are still harboring? Do you find yourself upset the rest of the
day after an interaction? Are you worried about the children
and wondering how they are going to do with the divorce or
breakup? You look ahead and realize you have a job to finish
raising your children and this requires a relationship with your
former spouse. It is called co-parenting post divorce.
I luckily don't have to. But my sisters do. So, I can see how it affects the children. I am lucky my ex spouse walked out of my childs life and out of state many many years ago. It really was the best thing. As he was an abusive jerk. But I see my sisters and their kids have problems. Kids can't cope and grades affected at school. parents arege, fight or in and out of job.
