Why He Can’t Stand Giving You That Child Support Check Every Month

  Why He Can’t Stand Giving You That Child Support Check Every Month BY JACKIE PILOSSOPH Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, Former Chicago Tribune Columnist and Features Reporter, Huffington Post Blogger and TV News Reporter Can men and women be friends after  a divorce ? I think so. Not immediately, but over time, you might be surprised. But there’s one thing I think that keeps men and women at odds for a long, long time. It’s a source of resentment that breeds perpetual  anger and bitterness . I’m talking about child support. When someone has to hand over a child support check every month, a few things could be going on: 1. It can bring back the emotions of the divorce because it’s a monthly reminder. 2. It can cause  financial anxiety. 3. It can make a person feel like divorce laws aren’t fair. 4. The person always kind of wonders if the child support check is really going to  the kids. 5. The person might feel like the ex isn’t appreciative. So, he/she feels an...

My Husband Drinks Too Much and I’m Worried about the Kids

  My Husband Drinks Too Much and I’m Worried about the Kids BY CHRIS BECK Vice President of Business Development - Family Law at Soberlink My husband drinks too much (or my wife drinks too much.) Believe it or not, this is a commonly searched phrase, indicating that there are so many women (and men) who have this concern. Add an impending divorce into the mix and  the spouse who is worried about excessive alcohol use  and/or drinking and driving with the kids can become even more stressed and fearful. If you’re navigating divorce or co-parenting challenges, and alcohol misuse is part of the conversation, you deserve clarity and peace of mind. Whether you’re concerned about your co-parent’s drinking or trying to show you’re committed to sobriety, there’s truly only one way to to document the truth in a reliably way: an alcohol monitoring device. Soberlink  is an alcohol monitoring device that families use to support safe parenting time and to document sobriety in a wa...

My Ex Is Getting Married And It Hurts Like Hell. How To Handle It

  My Ex Is Getting Married And It Hurts Like Hell. How To Handle It BY JACKIE PILOSSOPH Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, Former Chicago Tribune Columnist and Features Reporter, Huffington Post Blogger and TV News Reporter My ex is getting married and it hurts like hell!! That’s what I wanted to shout several years ago when I found out my ex was engaged. Not because I wanted to get back together with him, but because of  many other emotions  stirring around in my head. I don’t care how much time has gone by or how long a person has been divorced, when you find out your ex is getting married, not only does it hurt, but it is a true shocker, and there are many feelings associated with it, including the feeling of injustice–like unfairness. There is also  anger, bitterness, and jealousy –why does he get the happy ending and I don’t? And, an evaluation/reflection of your own life and what might not be working. I’ll never forget where I was when I found out my ex was gettin...

My Ex Moved On Immediately

  GETTING DIVORCED   •   May 29, 2025 My Ex Moved On Immediately: 3 Seconds After We Got Separated In Fact BY JACKIE PILOSSOPH Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, Former Chicago Tribune Columnist and Features Reporter, Huffington Post Blogger and TV News Reporter There are many heartbreaks that happen during  a divorce.  The first heartbreak occurs during that gut-wrenching moment you know you are  getting divorced : either you both realize the best option for you as a couple is to split, or your ex blindsides you with a conversation that starts with, “Honey, we need to talk,” and then tells you he/she wants  a divorce , or you’re the one who knows you need to leave. But there’s another major heartbreak that I hear so often from divorced people: “My ex moved on immediately; 3 seconds after getting separated, in fact.”     Women do it too, but I cannot count the number of calls and emails I get from women, where the conversation starts out, “You a...
