This Children in Between Online class helps parents going through a divorce or separation learn respectful communication skills and anger control, allowing them to make better choices - with their children and their ex. 

Respectful Communication Skills

Parenting after divorce can become more difficult for most parents. We describe 5 ways to improve communication which include:

  • "I" Messages
  • Reframing Motives
  • Self-Talk
  • Stop-Look-Listen
  • Active Listening

Ending Loyalty Conflicts

Children can be damaged by loyalty conflicts and being "put in the middle" of their parents disagreements. We focus on limiting the amount of conflict children get exposed to.

Anger Control

Parents who control their temper are more likely to communicate with their co-parents in a manner that is more likely to lead to peaceful contact and limit the effect of divorce or separation on the children.

"I really enjoyed the program. More than I expected to. I look forward to using the methods I have learned today. I have a new-found respect and opinion of the program. I definitely recommend that parents take the class."

Father- Hamilton County, OH

"The focus of the material on mindfulness -- being aware of one's feelings, and how those feelings can impact behavior -- was very helpful in practical terms.  Both parents want the best for their children, and seeing how setting aside conflict to support the other co-parent in their relationship with the child was good information."

Father- Maricopa County, AZ

"The most helpful and useful things I learned in this course were that it is possible to get along with the co-parent with the appropriate knowledge, and use of the skills taught in this lesson."

Mother- Hamilton County, OH
