Helping Kids Cope with Separation and Divorce Protecting Your Children
At a time when conflict seems inevitable, failure to act in your children’s best interests can create lasting damage, and in extreme cases force the court to step in and appoint a lawyer to look after their interests. Here are some simple steps to avoid conflict escalation and ensure your children’s well-being:
• Recognize that children need to be able to love and maintain healthy relationships with both parents • Be generous with the other parent with respect to spending time with the children • Don’ t assume the worst motives on the part of the other parent • Don’ t air grievances about the other parent within hearing of the children • Don’ t argue with the other parent in front of the children • Don’ t use threats about the children to make the other parent comply with your demands To ensure the rights of your children are fully protected, consult a family law professional at RDM for a holistic approach to separation and divorce.

The benefits of these legal arrangements include: • Dealing with the tough questions before you enter a formal relationship arrangement • Having the certainty of how things will be handled if the relationship changes • Planning for the future together • Providing peace of mind for parents, children or loved ones who may be affected
