When it comes to co-parenting with your ex, are you experiencing the same conflicts over and over again?
Even though you and your ex-spouse finally arrived at a co-parenting plan, it doesn’t seem to address the underlying dynamics about what really goes on beneath the surface of conflicts you had during and after the divorce.
I know it’s easier for you to just blame your ex for everything that goes wrong, but have you taken the time to examine how your own behavior may be contributing to the constant bickering?
The following are mistakes you should avoid, especially when you’re angry:
- Withholding information about your child from the other parent regarding school activities or medical issues
- Don’t ask your child to keep information secret from his or her other parent such as a possible move out of the city
- Never confront your ex when out in public
