I feel like there were good tools to help two people deal with the anger and resentment that comes from disagreements. I learned I need to let go of the past things he did wrong in order for us to move forward for the sake of our child and give him the chance to prove he’s changed. When I first learned that I had to do a parenting course, I was not very excited to start taking it. I feel that I’m a great parent in general and that this was likely going to tell me not to abuse my kids etc. I was very wrong. This course caused me to do a great deal of introspection and look at how we got to this point no matter the crazy circumstances that I feel were out of my control. Outstanding course and I’m probably going to go back and listen to all the videos again to get more out of it a second time. They did an excellent job by giving ideas of how to communicate with the other parent. Thank you for this course. I got a chance to see myself in my husbands eye’s. I was able to take everything you were saying and see where I can put it in my marriage to build a stronger and healthier relationship with my husband. I see where I need to take the responsibility for my action that has brought us where we are. I can’t wait to se what her get’s out of it and for us to be able to talk with out feeling like we are need to blame. I am taking this into our couple therapy along with being a better parent to our children. I can’t wait for my children say that because of this course my parents are better parents. We have always tried to put them first but our feeling get in the way sometimes. so now I have a way that makes since to my brian to make sure that they are never put in the middle again. I think my big takeaway is the realization that our marriage, and our co-parenting, are two completely different relationships. Our differences are ours, not our child’s. It is important to accept the end of the marriage. Easier said than done, but necessary, regardless. The future goal is a cooperative team effort to ensure that our child comes first. My ex-wife, and the mother of my child, while being the same person, are two different relationships. This course helped open my eyes to that, and hopefully provided me with the tools to apply that in real life This is an eye opening course. And helped me understand why me and my ex spouse have different views on what happened in our marriage. The course was helpful to remind and instill some things that was already known. To talk about certain issues that affect relationships helped to see the importance of communication. Very raw and to the point. This course helped me take accountability for my actions in my divorce. And help me understand and set boundaries in my coparenting relationship. This course was eye opening. Initially, I felt it would be a waste of my time, but I began to realize how beneficial it was during the second section. I started the course because I had to. but I started to look forward to utilizing the information presented. Not simply for the well-being of my daughter, but also for myself. It helped me better understand myself. as well as my spouse’s response to the separation and impending divorce. This course was a good baseline for how to move forward through the difficult process of divorce. Makes you think of your part in the failed relationship but also how you can succeed in your new relationship as parents. Overall, Great course, lots of examples and necessary information. Enjoyed the role playing in order to help the divorcees to Think out loud, or think outside the box!! Insightful, getting both male and female perspectives. i like the power that they have to be able to come together and help others that are going through something that is not easy to understand and making it work The first video i can relate it made me cry! because the children are the once that get affected by all of this! This is a great course. It really makes you think about how your decisions in the past have affected your future and will affect your child’s future. Ive learned a lot most of which i need to take in and let it sit with me and i put into my daily life of learning to forgive and reach a point that we can co parent effectively and appropriately, personally i think this class was wonderful and helpful to many degrees that not only divorcing people need to learn and hear but anyone going through a rough road of impasses which their spouse or relationship with another would benefit from this class. Learn of forgiveness and not to blame to understand and make boundaries… COMMUNICATION IS KEY this course really gives you perspective. You really need to be willing to do this to succeed. This program really does help you understand how to deal with and learn how to grow yourself in order to have a better divorce for not only you but your child and ex-spouse. There is so much to be taken away from these videos and the worksheet. I am very happy with the self-reflecting and calling people out to look at things as an adult and as unbiased as possible. I hope my daughters mother takes the sane course because I believe it would be a great service to our co-parenting relationship and out daughter.Good
