What are the 3 C's of divorce?

What are the 3 C's of divorce? AI Overview The three C's of divorce are generally understood as Communication, Compromise, and Cooperation (or sometimes Custody or Co-Parenting). Applying these principles can help couples navigate divorce with less conflict, leading to mutually beneficial agreements, especially regarding children and finances. Here's a breakdown of each C: Communication: Open and effective communication is crucial for sharing information, resolving disputes, and maintaining understanding between divorcing partners. Compromise: Both parties must be willing to give a little on certain issues, such as finances or child arrangements, to reach a workable outcome. Cooperation/Custody/Co-Parenting: This involves working together to create a functional and peaceful future, particularly when children are involved. Focusing on co-parenting can help maintain a positive co-parenting relationship and prioritize the children's well-being. By embracing these ...

How to Co-Parent With A Conflictual Parent

How to Co-Parent With A Conflictual Parent By  Christina McGhee When you have to co-parent with someone who is dedicated to conflict, you can expect that just about everything related to co-parenting will be more difficult after your divorce . I hear it all the time. “Christina, how can I possibly co-parent with someone who isn’t willing to be cooperative or does everything they can to make co-parenting as hard as possible?” I get it. While many parents get along better after they part, that’s not everyone’s reality. Which is why I joined my good friend  Susan Guthrie , host of the excellent podcast,  Divorce and Beyond , to talk about the challenges a lot of parents are dealing with on the daily.  If you’d like to listen to our conversation, click the image below.  The truth is when you have a high-conflict co-parent, you can expect that just about everything related to co-parenting will be more difficult. Daily haggling over issues like scheduling, how much ti...

Nesting After Divorce

Nesting After Divorce. What Parents Need to Know Before Giving It a Try. By  Christina McGhee Nesting after divorce involves kids staying put while parents move in and out of the family home. Sometimes it’s also referred to as “birdnesting.” Initially Sarah and Miguel thought nesting sounded like a perfect solution. While there were many things they disagreed about, they were both laser-focused on the well-being of their tweens. Emotions were high. Nobody wanted to move. So, in a moment of “let’s just get through this,” they agreed:  The kids needed to stay in the house, and we’ll come and go. At first, it worked. Sort of. But as the weeks dragged on, tensions started to escalate. Sarah continued to hang on to the hope that maybe she and Miguel could save their marriage. Miguel, however, was still reeling from the sting of Sarah’s infidelity and wanted out.  It didn’t take long before old arguments started to resurface and communication became extremely strained. While th...

Divorce is always good news

"Divorce is always good news. I know that sounds weird but it's true, because  no good marriage has ever ended in divorce.  That's never happened - THAT would be sad." Louis C. K.  I'm getting ready to divorce my husband and wanted to share a little blog post that I found helpful with making this decision. All 10 of the items that she lists are all items that I was clueless about before and after I married my husband. I had no idea what a good partner looked like nor how to be a good partner myself. Even now, these are qualities that are not prevalent in our marriage, which, I think, is a pretty good indicator that it's time to walk away.  10 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Got Divorced Quote: Irrevocably Broken by Lindsay Heller There surely comes a time in every marriage when we question if the grass is greener on the other side. When marriage is not easy and doesn’t look or feel like we thought it would. When the voids within ourselves become so dark and heav...

10 People Who Might Not Like You When You Get Divorced

  10 People Who Might Not Like You When You Get Divorced BY JACKIE PILOSSOPH Founder, Divorced Girl Smiling, Former Chicago Tribune Columnist and Features Reporter, Huffington Post Blogger and TV News Reporter Don’t you feel like when you get  divorced , there are two camps, and most people feel like they need to be in one? There are a few mutual friends who try to stay neutral, but then, let’s be honest, it’s just awkward. And then, at one point they get together with one of the divorcing spouses and the other spouse becomes angry and thinks their friends took a side.   The sad fallout of getting divorced: you will lose some friendships.

It’s strange to think that those who used to treat you with such warmth and kindness might now see you as the enemy, the devil, the bitch, the woman who ruined your ex’s life, and therefor...
