Our Family in Two Homes

About this Book

When parents separate, they begin a new journey: parenting from two homes rather than one while providing consistency and security for their children. This poses new challenges and sometimes requires new skills.

When parents understand their own and their co-parent's values, communication strengths and weaknesses, and conflict styles — and when co-parents create a shared vision for how to manage the two-home challenge — they are better equipped to make this transition as seamless for their children as possible.

That's where the Our Family in Two Homes workbook comes in: helping parents prepare for the conversations in which they will create a workable, durable plan that enables them to continue being the best parents they can be.

Our Family in Two Homes is available to all clients of Mathewson Collaborative Law & Mediation. Doing its exercises will prepare you for your collaborative divorce or mediation, and help you communicate effectively with your co-parent during your divorce process and beyond.

The workbook contains self-reflection questions as well as essential information about division of assets, child support, and parenting plans, so that clients can prepare in their own way and on their own time.

Our goals are to:

Help you improve communication with your former partner
Enable you to make good parenting decisions now and as your children grow
Guide you in allocating assets and debts for a healthy financial future
Empower you to meet the unique needs of your family as you transition to two homes

When people are hurt, disillusioned, frightened or angry, peaceful and consensual dispute resolution doesn’t come easily. That’s why good professional guidance is so important, and that’s why I’m committed to doing what I do. Parents and children can thrive, even after hope for a long and happy marriage has been lost.
