When we wake up and realize life is not what we imagined it would be, it creates a split in us. The best way to heal that divide is to look deep inside and find out who you are and what you want and then you will be equipped to start down a new path. Growth is hard because it is always partnered with change and grief but it is mankind’s greatest pursuit to always be wanting to be better and find greater fulfillment.
In today’s state of divisive politics, one can learn a lot about conflict. The one thing politics can teach us is that it is necessary to work within a framework of rules and decorum in order to come together to make important decisions (such as how to raise happy, healthy, and productive humans!) If Republicans and Democrats can work together for the good of the country, you and your Ex can definitely Co-Parent without conflict for the good of your kids.
Exchanges can be a difficult time for parents and kids. Parents begin to anticipate the worst and dread having contact with their Ex. Kids have to prepare to say goodbye to one parent and switch homes. When conflict arises, things get much worse real fast for both adults and children. But this is a time of reunion! A time of stability for your kids: a reinforcement of the parent-child bond that survives beyond your adult romantic relationship. This is about your kids, getting to be with them, and making them happy. When your thoughts start to be all about your Ex, refocus on your kids!
Feeling like you have ‘set time’ with your own children can be a horrible feeling. But the only thing worse than parenting by a detailed schedule is NOT following a set schedule! Following a detailed parenting plan gives your kids the security they need during this tumultuous time and helps limit conflict. Make your parenting plan your top priority!
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.
Do you have concerns letting your kids go to a state that doesn’t have any restrictions?
