Both parents being a part of the childrens life has been very important to me. Trying to find a way to co-parent can be difficult when the other parent has a new significant other that comes in-between and one I have a restraining order against. Over all that being conscious of my responses and ensuring I don’t put additional responsibility on the children when going between parents. I appreciated the discussion about how important communication is and putting the kids first. I would have liked more in regards to the self forgiveness and more in recognizing why the other party withheld. Found the excersize in seeing the damage withholds cause and the need to address them athentically when they do. nobody is perfect, and forgiving one another is a huge step. the children involved will greatly benefit if the parents can forgive and move on in life. Great reminders for us all to be forgiving, real, caring, kind, open-minded, accepting, responsible, and accountable. Excellent content. This training course helped me in more ways than one. In my situation forgiveness and understanding eachother played apart in alot of the conflict, and this course touched alot on those topics. This course has open my mind to be able to have a better understanding. I didn’t think so much about how much we cling to our individual family history realities and how those can clash so much because as individuals that history is something we take for granted and assume that the other person understands, when they do not. I learned how to forgive and let go. Take responsibility for my own actions. Keep it focused on the children. Be open and keep communication about the children This class focused on taking responsibility for your actions and making the best life going forward for the kids. I enjoyed this coming from a real life couple and not a therapists starch POV. It helped gain real like advice for coparenting with respect. Your spouse is in your life for the rest of your life when you have kids together. This course gives opportunity to see a different perspective on what my role was in this marriage breakdown and how I’m going to act responsibly to make it as seamless as possible for our kids moving forward. I learned the short and long term positive affects of working in a collaborative fashion vs. adversarial. This course really has helped me to take a breath and step back, take ownership for my contributions to the end of my marriage. It reinforced how important it is to always put the kids first. I really enjoyed this class! if I had these resources from the beginning id be in a totally different place! Good for focusing on child’s best interests & building collaborative relationship with ex spouse & letting go of blame. This course was very eye opening and made me reflect on my own behavior/situation. It contained many applicable tools I hope to use in the future for a better life for myself, ex husband and our child. He thinks he is right, you think you are right, the battle is on, and the kids suffer, really everyone suffers. Compromise, and/or restructure the family and respect each other. Encourage the love and relationship of the other parent, because the level your kids are messed up depends on you. We always forget that we weren’t forced to marry each other. We chose to marry each other This course has a lot of great information on how to work on coparenting with one another but also a good deal of self reflection and self awareness I found the class helpful in the process of proceeding with separation with my ex girlfriend, and navigating a path for our children.Importance of both parents being involved and a part of the childrens life
