Getting Along With Your Co-Parent

Working with your child’s other parent will not always be easy. There is a lot on the line for families and children, and conflict is almost inevitable.

Our Tips For Working With Your Child’s Other Parent

Your situation and existing relationship with your co-parent will determine what the best tactics for cooperation will be. As you prepare for your future co-parenting relationship, we encourage you to consider the tips below:

  • Be aware of your boundaries. You may not be in a place where you can speak with your co-parent on good terms or where trust is an issue. In these cases, consider steps to manage these needs. Can you use a notebook through a third party to communicate? What accountability measures can you take?
  • Know what matters for your child. Your family has unique priorities. Do you and your co-parent celebrate certain holidays differently? Are you on the same page about medical care and education? Be upfront about what is important for both of you before you discuss logistics.
  • Consider your child’s best interest. Child psychologists agree that stability and strong parental relationships are key for a child’s growth. Approach all issues from the perspective of what will benefit your child, not your personal desires.

You may be able to reach an agreement easily. If not, court may be your only option. Regardless, you can rely on our firm to support you and help you find the best path for your family.
