When you sign the divorce papers, you may feel a mix of emotion – from sadness to loss, anger and even relief. This is all very normal, and it is also normal for your life to be much different after your divorce as well. However, it is unrealistic to think that your life after divorce will not involve periodic contact with your ex, especially if you share custody of your kids. AMS Mediation can help you manage the post-divorce communication
If you are going through a divorce and having difficulty resolving issues surrounding your children and/or parenting, then you may benefit from a parenting support service offered by the team at AMS Mediation. You may not be able to agree with your spouse about much at all and find that compromise is simply not in the cards. Since you cannot possibly take each and every disagreement or conflict to a judge, Minnesota offers several key resources that can help families navigate these difficult issues.
It may be about the only thing that you and your ex can agree on, but your kids are likely the most important priority in a divorce. When you decide to divorce, your family dynamic changes significantly and you and your ex become co-parents, with two different households. This can create some unique challenges for families, so the staff at AMS Mediation has developed our co-parenting coaching services to help divorcing couples in Maple Grove, just like you navigate this challenge and keep your kids at the front of your mind in every decision.
Co-parenting under one roof can be hard enough. In fact, differences in parenting styles
Co-parenting after a divorce is one of the most challenging aspects of the process. It can be hard to let go of the old emotions, conflict and the unhealthy dynamic that led to the split, but when you share children, you must find a way to work together after your divorce is final. The vast majority of divorces result in some form of shared custody, so a positive and successful co-parenting approach
There are times when all of us need help. Our culture, which is based in part on the ideas of self-determination and self-reliance, still sends the message that we should resist reaching out for help from others. When it becomes obvious that we need help, however, we want to know that the person or service to whom we are reaching out for help is competent, dependable, reliable, and honest.
