Children and Divorce: 3 Things They Will Learn By  Katharine Rupp ,  Divorce Attorney, Judicial Education Coordinator, OurFamilyWizard   Parents are constantly working to instill good values and positive behavior in their children, but kids also learn directly from our actions, even when we’re not actively working to teach them. More often than not, despite our best efforts, children will absorb far more from what we do than what we say. When it comes to divorce and children, they will have a front row seat to observe  how their parents handle complex emotions and conflict. Your kids won’t expect you to stick every landing perfectly, but they will learn a considerable amount from how you typically find your way through the challenges of co-parenting. When it comes to divorce and children, consider these 3 C’s to make sure your child’s separation education provides them with a strong base for navigating conflict in the future. The 3 C’s in What Your Children will Lear...

Feeling Sad On Christmas or Hanukkah? Focus On These Three Things By  Jackie Pilossoph ,  Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, the place to find trusted, vetted divorce professionals, a podcast, website and mobile app. I have a special message for those feeling sad on Christmas or Hanukkah this year. Maybe you’re  going through a divorce, or maybe you are  already divorced and you’re just feeling lonely this year. Maybe your ex has the kids and that’s causing you pain. Whatever the reasons are for your feelings of sadness on Christmas or Hanukkah, I understand. Holidays are extremely emotional times for reasons that include memories, traditions, sentimentality, family, and the pressure to have “the best Christmas ever.” Being a divorced person who has spent countless Christmas’s (and a couple Thanksgiving’s alone), I have come to realize that feeling sad on Christmas or Hanukkah can be alleviated by focusing on three things:   1. Gratitude I know it’s hard to have gr...

What is a High Net Worth Divorce? By  J. Turner Thornton ,  Partner, Varghese Summersett, Divorced Girl Smiling Trusted Professional What is a high net worth divorce?A high net worth divorce case is one in which the  divorcing couple has significant assets, property, and income to divide.  These cases often involve complex property division and alimony arrangements. Generally, this means at least a million dollars in assets that need to be divided. Divorce can be especially complex for high net worth individuals, requiring in-depth negotiations and property division arrangements. In such cases where significant assets are at stake, it’s essential to consider the possibility of hidden or undisclosed funds by either party. This is often a difficult task as cash is notoriously hard to trace. When marriage hits the rocks, some people may try to get creative or even go to extreme lengths to protect their financial well-being. Here are some ways  people try to hide mo...

Thinking Of Separating? Here are Answers To Questions You Might Have By  Jackie Pilossoph ,  Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, the place to find trusted, vetted divorce professionals, a podcast, website and mobile app. Deciding whether or not to stay in a marriage is not only daunting, but the  tormenting dilemma  can feel hopeless, since both options – leaving or staying might seem depressing or wrong. If you’re thinking of separating, you are facing a time of complete uncertainty, confusion and second-guessing yourself. People thinking of separating have countless questions running through their minds, and oftentimes no one to turn to for answers, mostly because it’s such a private issue. That’s why they sometimes turn to me – a divorced mom and the founder of Divorced Girl Smiling.       Here are four questions I received from a man with two teenagers who is thinking of separating from his wife, along with my answers: Q: Is there ever a “right” t...

Honey, I Want A Divorce: When A Woman Decides to Leave By  Jackie Pilossoph ,  Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, the place to find trusted, vetted divorce professionals, a podcast, website and mobile app. Below is an email from a reader who explained that she is  going through a divorce , and that  the divorce  was HER decision. She asked me if I could give her some advice for when a woman decides to leave. In other words, how does one deal with the immense guilt of leaving your husband, when he didn’t want the divorce? (or didn’t know it was coming.)   “It would be so much easier if I could stamp him as a cheater,  alcoholic ,  slacker, loser, abuser. But I can’t! He has been a good father to  our children , a loyal husband as far as I know, and a good provider for our family.  I am in therapy for all the feelings including guilt. The fact is, this has hurt him and ripped his heart out (those were his words).” I have a few thoughts f...

When Your Spouse Doesn’t Want A Divorce By  Karen Covy ,  Divorce and Decision Coach, Former Divorce Attorney and Mediator, Divorced Girl Smiling Trusted Professional My heart went out to this woman, whose spouse doesn’t want a divorce:  “I want a divorce  but my husband doesn’t.  I have been unhappy for years. I’ve tried to talk to him. No response. I tried to get him to go to  marriage counseling.  He said okay, but never went. I told him I was going to a divorce lawyer. He was upset at first, but now acts like nothing has changed. I am beside myself!  I know that  getting a divorce  is the right thing to do. But my husband is making this so hard! He got the divorce papers but won’t open them. He refuses to show up in court. My lawyer says I can get divorced without him, but I feel so guilty! I know he is going to blame me for everything. What do I do?” It’s bad enough to have to say, “I want a divorce but my husband doesn’t.” But, whe...
