Very good blog posts about an issue that often arises as couples divorce. I have provided a link on our Facebook page to your posts.
Ada,
You really nailed it! These situations can introduce a new, more intense level of toxicity into an already soured relationship. While our role as mediators is limited, I think we need to be prepared to offer language that puts the children’s concerns first yet respects both parents as they struggle with their new realities. It’s a challenge. I’d love to see other comments that address our role and what we can do to mitigate the damage.
