Partners go from one way of connecting, to a very different set of expectations from one another – because it becomes more about them co-parenting and prioritising the kids instead of their relationship.ย
How I guide and support them through this transition, is working with them to develop a ‘๐๐ผ-๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฃ๐น๐ฎ๐ป’.ย
Itโs a solid and effective way to help them focus and collaborate together, so they can create a different future.ย
Reality is, theyโll always be connected because of the children and way into their adult years.ย
Some of the areas we go through are:ย
shared living arrangementsย
scheduled responsibilities of looking after the kidsย
preferences on parenting stylesย
creating healthy communication between co-parentsย
childrenโs emotional well-beingย
how special occasions will work, like birthdays etcย
suitable modes of communication between co-parentsย
agreement on how to introduce a new partner to the children.

While this ‘๐๐ผ-๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฃ๐น๐ฎ๐ป’ is being developed, I work with partners to work through unresolved issues, because part of them moving forward, is creating a new type of relationship as co-parents and for the future of their family.ย
