Crossroads of Parenting & Divorce is a five-step seminar designed to prevent divorce abuse—a specific type of emotional abuse that divorcing parents cause when, in their anger and bitterness, they lose sight of their child’s needs.

This seminar will help parents become aware of how their actions may inadvertently harm their children, show how to establish positive post-divorce co-parenting relationships, and provide them with the skills they need to stay child-focused while minimizing poor choices amidst conflict and loss.

  • Step 1: Keep your child out of the middle.

  • Step 2: Allow your child to love both parents.

  • Step 3: Work on your own recovery.

  • Step 4: Develop new communication skills.

  • Step 5: Create a positive new relationship as co-parents.

The program combines video, activities, skill development and discussion. It is designed for providers to offer court systems a new and more effective form of divorce seminar.
