Successful CoParenting
with Dr. Vanessa Lapointe and David Loyst
How to make it work for you and your kids when it didn’t work for your marriage.
When You Can’t Change Your Co-Parent, Change the Way You Co-Parent
Love, marriage, and a baby carriage. And then, happily ever after right? But it doesn’t go that way for all families.
With divorce/separation rates approaching 60% in certain countries, the shattered dreams of happily ever after are a reality for many of us. And yet, what if separated/divorced didn’t have to mean “shattered?”
What if there was a way to “be a family” and have your children know love and connectedness in the midst of divorce and lawyers and house moves and shared custody and all the things?
Dr Vanessa and David will discuss the importance of our children having at least one connected and compassionate parent, and how disparaging our co-parent can have lasting effects not only on our relationship with that parent, but also with our children. They will review key concepts that will support you in finding your way forward so your children can thrive, along with ideas of how to navigate day to day life amidst separation and divorce. You can and will find your way.
in this webinar you will...
- Better understand our role as big people when our family is restructured in divorce and/or separation
- Learn why connection is the answer to so many of the questions you will have as you navigate this time of transition
- Know what it is that our children need from us as we script out new routines, living arrangements, partners and more
- Get instant, lifetime access to the one-hour webinar with Dr. Vanessa Lapointe and David Loyst PLUS Real-Life Q&A Replay from the live session
