Ah, the holidays—when families come together to celebrate love, joy, and... well, the awkwardness of navigating post-divorce life with your kids. You know, the special kind of holiday magic that only comes with dividing up Christmas Eve and figuring out who gets the kids for New Year’s Eve.
For kids, divorce during the holidays is like getting a new toy and realizing it needs 4 AA batteries that are nowhere to be found. It’s a festive game of parental ping-pong: “Do you want to go to Dad’s or Mom’s first? The holidays turn into a battle of “whose side will you be on today?” Often, the kids don't even know whose house they'll be at until the last minute. And while kids may not vocalize it, their inner monologue is brokenhearted, not enthusiastic. If this sounds like your situation, mediation may be the solution. We can help you negotiate a parenting plan without expensive attorneys that will benefit everyone by having a routine your kids can count on. Contact Second Heaven Strategies today and together, let's get to the heart of the matter!
