When You Have Children

Every parent worries about the effect of family breakdown on their children. The years of carefree childhood that are lost to divorce conflict can never be regained.

When you choose a collaborative approach to resolving your issues, you are supporting your children’s emotional well-being by:

• Insulating them from the anxiety and stress of living on a battlefield
• Allowing them to stop worrying about you and enjoy a normal childhood
• Showing them that conflict is a problem to be solved and not a battle to be fought
• Improving their parents’ ability to work together in the future as co-parents

Conflict in our daily lives impacts our health and the health of our children. By choosing to solve problems in a climate of dignity and respect, we protect ourselves – and those we love.
