5 tips when going through separation , divorce and child custody

  1. Trust that the relationship you have created with your child or children will continue. Where a child is very young, it is understandable to feel that you have not had the chance to bond with the child, if you are not the primary care-giver, but with time trust that this relationship will blossom;
  2. Use specialist family lawyers who will give you the right advice. Aggressive or “bulldog” approaches may be tempting , but in the long run do nothing but cause frustration and high legal bills;
  3. Where possible try and resolve issues and look at the big picture. Think about what sort of relationship you would want for your child when they are older;
  4. Don’t speak ill or badly of the other parent to the child or in their presence or hearing range. Children love both their parents and there is nothing more damaging and upsetting to hear one parent badmouthing the other parent.  It can cause long term psychological and emotional problems for your child;
  5. Control and manage your emotions. It is very important that you are able to deal with your emotions as going through separation, divorce and child custody is extremely difficult. You need support and there is no shame in seeking professional support at this time.
