Course Reviews

This really put into perspective for me, the impact that my actions and response towards my former spouse will have on our child. Trying to make him out to be the only one wrong, does absolutely no good for our child, myself or my former spouse.

there is a reason that this is required in many states. it just makes sense to give people an idea of why this happened and the best way to move forward. it was so informative, good to reflect on yourself and find that you had a part in causing the divorce and you are responsible for things going forward. most importantly to put children first.

Great workshop! Put things in perspective.

I learned how important it is to make sure that you don’t make them feel like it is their fault that you and the other parent are not together, and to encourage and enlighten the child about how they should be happy to get to do things with the other parent and encourage them to have fun. I now know that is would be best if i can learn to like and get along with my childs mother even though we are not together.

All the chapters were very insightful, I appreciated the testimonies from the others in the seminar. The chapter that caught my attention was the ‘turning point’, owning up to the fact that we all knew from the beginning what we were getting ourselves into… I feel this. Moving forward hindsight is 20/20

The over all reflection while following this class has created confidence for me while bridging the gap into co-parenting.

This course was very informative and allowed me to see through different perspectives.

Stable and fulfilling. Peace of mind. More able to assist child. Medical, education and discipline decisions. Less impact/effect on her for a successful future. Could be serious consequences if not properly addressed and communicated. Responsibility or stress that they may feel. Torn between two worlds. Loving both parents meaning it is not helpful to take all of the time away. What is now? I know I have at least something to do with everything and am taking responsibility. Restated that everything going forward is for Hailee. There is a major differencebetween what happened and interpretation.

Where did it go wrong? Not knowing the other parent, baby not made from love but love for the baby is forever. Poor communication. There is no guilt but responsibility for what has been said and done. It was toxic from the beginning. Never on the same page with the relationship with each other. Platonic. 0% attachment and commitment to each other. Freedom not necessarily with apology. Not intentionally malicious.circumstances did not cause solutions. Avoid reasons for not working and then avoid justification. I am not investing in making things wrong and not withholding information especially important info regarding the child. The parents are not connected but children are connected by everything and all surroundings. Main goal is to not damage any and all wellbeing. Always have integrity going forward. When it comes to Guilt or Blame. Context is a powerful place to stand. Choose a point of view that is empowering.. I was truly who I am when the mother met me. Children will be better off if and when I;take responsibility which is now. Generosity is powerful. They get to have environment where parents get along. Disconnect if needed. Connect following these decisions to set agreements with the coparent. A great example is the set schedule already in place. Opinions are opinions and not truth. Half Dad and half Mom. Mutual decisions in both household for consistency creates united front and empowering for maneuvering . Don’t disempower in front of kids. Ask it to stop if it occurs.

The effects of withholding and how I can create a healthy dynamic going forward

Great course with great resource

Lots of information and key principles to implement into my own situation with co-parenting.

de primero no creí necesario tomar estas clases pensaba que era perdida de tiempo conforme fui avanzando ahora creo que fue lo mejor , con estas clases entendí que es una necesidad el llevarte bien con tu ex pareja y crear un plan de acuerdos en conjunto por el bienestar de los niños .

I actually learned how from a very young age most people learn that responsibility means someone is getting blamed. This is not the case for the most part, Responsibility is just you admitting that things may have not happened the way you think they did.

This course is a great tool to reference during times of conflict

This course made me really see how responsible I am for the divorce and what I knew the entire time but that I just wanted to be right. That’s all I cared about. I stayed in a marriage for longer than I should have just to be right and make people feel bad for me. Completely enlightening. This gives me tools that I now am going to try regardless if if it’s reciprocated.

Self responsibility, acknowledging reality and putting children first is the priority for all of us here. Finding a way to navigate that path with the tools provided here is only going to help me, so I can help my child.

Was very helpful

Our daughter comes first. I know it was hard with me being gone during the week. I am changing my career to allow me to be home. I am able to forgive her for not paying the bills and our utilities being turned off multiple time. I know we had monthly bills that we should have talked about every month and paid them together so we both took responsibility in managing the bills. I feel we can agree on most issues and know that we need to do better with talking about what we may not agree to so we can do what is best for our daughter. I feel that it is best that our daughter has equal access to both parents and support getting her ready to exchange. I think we communicate well on some issues but need to work on when we don’t. I want us to consider the future as older parents that it is important for our daughter to have relationships with relatives so she has others to help her if needed. I accept things I could have done better and am working on myself to seek support in getting over grief from losing those close to me. I want to help my daughter be successful in her life and to be kind to others. For her to do that I know we need to set an example. I was very close to my grandfather and want to follow how he handled divorce. Our family was together a lot and he never spoke negatively about anything. Family is most important and I want my daughter to be able to spend time with family and share in her live with both parents like we have done with our other daughters. I plan to be listen better and come to be able to where we can both talk about what we feel is best for our daughter. I know there will be times I need to accept things that I may feel differently about if it is in the best interest of our daughter. I feel that we will be able to do what is best is for daughter and share things that need to be followed at both homes. We are able to do this for some things but need to get better as things get harder. I need to communicate better when I feel strongly about something and work together to find a compromise. I know from our other daughters that we need to communicate away from our daughter so she sees that we support each other.

Good reminders and tools

Getting a divorce is one of the most difficult experiences a person can go through. It is a change that affects life as you know it. This course has shown me that even though it is difficult, it can be a positive change if approached with honesty and willingness to work together. Putting aside your differences and doing what is best for your children will provide peace and stability for everyone involved. Just because your family looks different does not mean you cannot remain a team that works together.
