I don't normally ever leave a comment about reviews but I had to on yours. I totally agree with everything you said and it should be required reading for everyone with children or thinking of having children. Divorce effects children so much and it is about time people realize it. Kids are not leverage they are humans. Amen to your review great job!

You cover some very important territory here-- things many parents just forget about in the process of getting terribly wrapped up in their own problems. This should be a "print and save" for anyone going through this situation. Sorry you're having to deal with this, and all the best to you going forward.

I am going through divorce too and this list is sure going to help me check myself. It is very difficult not to be bitter but my child does come first with me and I have managed, so far, to put the resentment aside, even when it is very hard to. Thank you for a great review.

It should be required reading for all parents considering a divorce.

Good luck in your new single state.

...for sharing this valuable info. After reading it twice, I think there was something deleted from point #1 -- for some reason, the second sentence seems incomplete. Otherwise, great epinion.

Best wishes to you and your family during this difficult time.

Take care ~ nifer
