You may have a secret wish to never see your Ex again, but you know that’s not what is good for your kids. Learning how to detach yourself and keep your Ex from driving you crazy will go a long way in making everyone’s life better. Here are some tips to help you transition from wanting your Ex to be gone, to thinking of your co-parent as someone who cares about, and wants the best for your kids.
In order to make a better transition from ‘together’ to ‘apart’ and begin to make sense of this new direction your life has taken, tell a story around your journey. Think about who you were, who you want to be, and how you are going to overcome this obstacle to find personal growth and fulfillment. Getting through this hard time automatically makes you a strong, resilient person; someone who can create a new happily ever after and be a hero in their story.
Kids who have parents in two homes are always saying goodbye to someone and hello to someone else. They have to balance between being sad to leave one parent and being happy to see the other. Imagine only being able to see one of your children at a given time and always having to choose which one you’ll share different experiences with. Transitions are tough, and you’ll see the stress in your child’s behavior, regardless of their age. Be patient, be kind, be supportive. This was not their choice and everyone needs a little extra help through this difficult time.
Sometimes it can seem as if every interaction with your Ex ends up in a fight. If they used to be a reasonable person, then it may just be the result of the stress and uncertainty of your divorce. Things are difficult for everyone, try to be patient and follow these 3 tips to make things better now and in the years ahead.
Things with this crisis are going to be rapidly changing for some time to come. How do you re-negotiate new details about your kids every time there is new guidance or a change with this pandemic situation?
