Creating a Great Parenting Plan

Do you have a Parenting Plan for raising your kids now that you are a single, divorced parent? It will help you make it through the tough times of your divorce.

If you’re a divorced parent, you know better than even I do how busy your days can be with all the things on your To-Do list, answering your kids questions, hauling them around to their activities, being sure their homework gets done.

Keep Your Cool

Going through a divorce can really stir up emotions like margaritas in a blender. But if you’re going to be the best parent for your kids, you need to turn the blender off and learn how to keep your cool.

In the first few years of being divorced, we find that our emotions go through huge vacillations. One minute you’re a calm, kind loving parent - maybe a little overindulgent - and the next minute you have no patience or tolerance for the kids you truly love because now you’re irritated. It’s a huge flip flop, and it’s probably something you ought to consider getting under control, because while it might be normal, in the end it isn’t productive for either you or your children. You only get one chance to raise them right.
