What to expect...

Helping children.

During and after divorce or dissolution, kids may have various reactions:
  • Becoming aggressive toward siblings, defiant toward adults.
  • Withdrawing from people or activities.
  • Regressing in their behavior and coping skills.
Parenting challenge: to see the emotions behind the behaviors, and help your kids express those feelings safely and appropriately.
.

What is this class about?

This class is for parents going through a divorce or dissolution, and for others trying to strengthen a co parenting relationship. We will review the kinds of challenges that can arise for kids and parents after a family separation, including decisions about when to consider counseling, and including tips for managing the co-parenting relationship.

The content of the class is based on a curriculum booklet produced by the Nationwide
Children’s Hospital, with input from parents. Instructors will also add material from
experience working with families.

Goals of the program.

  • To help parents move on from a marital/couples relationship to a new partnership:  Co-parenting
  • To make sure both parents are exposed to the same research-based information about challenges that can arise in kids after divorce
  • To prepare parents to take care of themselves and their kids during this period of family change.
