Looking back I can see we could of used more communication. That we both played a part on us falling out of love with each other. We may have always gotten back together but both of our issues was never really resolved. Also I don’t want this divorce getting in the way of us loving our children or hurting them. The point that really hit home was putting the kids first and understanding that they seem themselves as an extension of their parents so saying something bad about the other parent also feels like you are saying something bad about them. It’s easy to only see things from your perspective and how you were affected in the divorce. These videos show how the dynamic is often not what it seems. i learned that no matter the circumstances you and you ex should be able to connect enough to deal with your choices and actions to make sure your child doesnt feel left out or hurt or even the middle man between you and your spouse. i learned how to effectively communicate with my spouse to make sure my kids are happy with both parents, taken care of at either persons house and not have to worry but trust them too a degree. I learned a few good tips and tricks Co-parenting is a partnership between parents who work together to raise their children, even after a romantic relationship ends. It can be challenging process, but it can also be a rewarding one. The key takeaways i have learned through the course and the most effective strategies that i have learned are. Communication, Open and respectful communication is essential not only for the parents but for the kids. Respect, respecting each others roles as parents is necessary for the quality of life for both the parents and for the children. Consistency, consistency in schedules, expectations, and communication helps the kids feel safe and stable. Children-centered, putting the needs of the children first is essential to there quality of life. Team work, working together as a team can help parents balance their responsibilities and reduce stress. Learning, Co-parenting is a processs of continuous learning and adapting. Rules are important, better when you are in a discussion. Stablish some rules to protect the children, in middle of a discussion, needs to be a priority, and man and woman need to be agreed about it to protect the sensibility of the children. taking responsibility for my own actions is sometimes hard to do but in the long run it works out for the best. communication is the key to a successful relationship to work. If there isn’t any communication between two people will there ever be trust. i have learned a lot about being a supportive co-parent to a strong and independent child that will be the best of both parents. This course was a very helpful way of seeing how two parents can successfully co-parent. Every single parent should take this course for the betterment of their relationship with their ex, as well as their child. This course brought up a number of important issues. Thinking about these things is helping me get past the blame and negativities associated with the breakup and is helping me focus on the future. This course was heavily focused on the divorce aspect and I think would benefit from more emphasis on parenting issues. Hello just wanted to appreciate people who had the time to share their life beyond separation and what affects and helps with the children. Also like to acknowledge that a lot of the things said related to my life and how I looked at my relationship with my children’s mother and how I could have helped a better outcome for my children if I had taken responsibility,forgiveness,and acknowledgment on the role I played I’ve learned a lot of new things in this which I will use moving forward. One of the biggest thing I took away from this is that in the moment you might be upset and how the other person is responding or acting and you need to look back on what you might have done to provoke it. Made a lot of great points and covered a lot of valuable information I have learned about some tools to better help me in making coparenting smoother and to remind myself that this journey is about the children and not my feelings toward their other parent. This course is very helpful in seeing how your marriage ended, trying to make sure the kids come 1st, and are least affected by the divorce. Trying to get you to forgive the other and actually co parent instead of just being civil. I thought it was very eye opening and interesting to hear the different perspectives This course should not be groundbreaking to anyone who has put the best interests of their children first since they were born. However, it is a good reminder that parents should be focused on the future for their child and not just making it through the divorce process. I learned that we need to work together and not against each other, for the sake of our child. This class was a really good parenting class. I liked that it focused on deeper things that will move benefit my kids. It also helped me come to terms with the many things that happened in our marriage.Looking Back
