Thought for June!
"Children need to respect both parents to respect themselves."
IS PARENTING COORDINATION RIGHT FOR YOU? LOOK TO THE LEFT AND CLICK
ON THE PARENTING COORDINATION LINK TO FIND OUT.
Over and over again I find myself having to make the same speech to
clients.
"The parent who makes the most noise against the other parent, within hearing distance of the children, will have the
least amount of respect from the children as they grow older."
Think of it this way...you may be winning the battle by temporarily frightening your children, or by temporarily building
anger or frustration in your children, but pay close attention to the word 'temporarily' because when the war is over, you
will have lost. Your child(ren) will resent you and you will have lost their trust forever.
Don't steal their right to have a relationship with both of their parents. It is abuse!
WHEN CHOOSING A Family Law Mediator, keep in mind that a comprehensive and extensive knowledge of family law is just
as, if not more, important than the skills of a great mediator. It is with this knowledge that I am able to prepare
my clients for the realities of what their rights and obligations are, thus shortening the length of time and the monetary
cost to reaching a negotiated agreement. With several years in family court as the exclusive Family Court Worker
for the Newmarket Superior Court, I bring with me a vast knowledge of both family law, as well as my accreditation as
a Family Law Mediator.
