016: From the Children of Divorce Directly

/

Today is special. You will here an excerpt from an interview I did with four adult children of divorce. They have some simple advice for you that could change your lives and the lives of your children forever. Please listen and learn from the real experts of divorce, the Children themselves.

You heard me correct. In September of this year I sat down with four adult children of divorce ranging in age from 21 to 31 and conducted a three hour interview. The full interview will most likely come out in 2025 as a three part series. Honestly there is real wisdom they share that every divorcing parent should hear so I hope you catch it when it airs. Today however you will be the first ever to hear these young ladies speak about their experience and share some simple but powerful advice for divorcing parents.

Many parents fail in co-parenting after divorce in a few simple areas that are simple to fix, easy to understand, and make some of the biggest impacts to recovery and adjustment of their Children. These young ladies experiences serve as yet another example of how their parents could have done a better job with these simple ideas. As you listen to them speak take note of what they say is important, what is not important, and how after all these years hear how so near the surface these ideas are for them. It is their hope and my intention through sharing these interviews with you that your children can be heard and helped in the ways they need from you. As you head into Christmas and start the new year let it be a time of commitment to consciously parent and connect with your Children through the remaining years of your lives. They will thank you. Enjoy this brief excerpt. Better Days Start Now.
