Karen L. Kristjanson shares the stories of a variety of divorced and separated couples who co-parent. Effective co-parenting, or sharing significant parenting time with an ex-spouse, is one of the best gifts separated parents can give to their children. The interviews in Co-Parenting from the Inside Out are with real moms and dads in diverse circumstances, showing them making choices, sometimes struggling, and often growing. Their stories offer insights into wise decision-making, as well as practical strategies that strengthen families. Parents can see that they are not alone as they navigate their feelings and build a future. While pain exists in most stories, there is also hope. Co-parents often feel that they have become more confident and compassionate, and parent better than before. The effects of their personal growth and their children’s are the silver lining in the dark pain of divorce. Karen L. Kristjanson has brought together real life co-parenting stories that inspire separated parents and help them understand co-parenting better, offering practical tips and tools that directly benefit families.

Note: links below connect to the non-profit educational Break the Cycle! Web site (Formerly "Stepfamily inFormation"). Close the pages or use your browser ́s "back" button to return here. Typical multi-home stepfamilies are riddled with conflicts between three or more co-parents and their relatives over child discipline, nutrition, visitations, custody, hygiene, religion, schooling, hoidays, loyalties, expenses, names, responsibilities, and other topics. The scope, complexity, and persistence of these disputes among ex mates, stepparents, and relatives can significantly contribute to eventual re/divorce. (The "/" notes it may be a stepparent ́s first union). This guidebook is part of a series intended to help co-parents and supporters overcome five common hazards that combine to (1) promote epidemic U.S. re/divorce, and (2) pass on significant psychological wounds to vulnerable children. The hazards are: co-parents ́ shared unawarenesses and ignorance of key information; plus... unseen psychological wounds from low-nurturance childhoods; plus... incomplete or blocked grief in kids and/or adults, which inhibits new bonds and adult intimacy; plus... courtship neediness and romantic illusions; plus... little informed stepfamily help in the media and local community. Typical nuclear stepfamilies include three or more co-parents (bioparents and stepparents) and several minor kids shuttling between two or more homes: Parenting effectively in this environment is far more complex than in "traditional" intact biological families - which catches typical co-parents and relatives by surprise. Why this book (and series)? Families exist to nurture - i.e. to fill key needs of their kids and adults. Most U.S. stepfamilies follow the divorce of one or both new mates, most of whom are parents. Divorce suggests that their kids weren ́t well nurtured in their first family, and have many concurrent developmental + special needs to fill in their complex stepfamily.

Are you struggling to connect with your son or daughter? Do you feel like you are speaking different languages? Are you afraid of causing emotional damage and seeing them drift away forever? Parenting is not easy. Parent-child relationships can be fraught with misunderstandings and conflicts that leave both sides feeling frustrated and disconnected. These challenges can significantly impact your son's or daughter's mental health and self-esteem, leading to feelings of isolation, anxiety, and even depression. Despite your efforts, your connection with your son or daughter might be slipping away, keeping you awake with fear and worry. As they navigate the complexities of life, they need a strong, supportive relationship with their parents to thrive. Without this foundation, they may struggle with the diverse challenges life presents, feeling unsupported and misunderstood. I recommend reading this book if you recognize at least one of the following traits in your son or daughter: • Increased Secrecy: They are more secretive about their activities and whereabouts. • Frequent Arguments: Small disagreements quickly escalate into major conflicts. • Withdrawal from Family Activities: They prefer to spend time alone or with friends rather than participating in family events. • Decline in Academic or Work Performance: Stress and emotional turmoil affect their performance. • Signs of Anxiety or Depression: Noticeable changes in mood, sleep patterns, or overall behavior. • Rebellious Behavior: They engage in risky behaviors or consistently break rules. • Minimal Communication: They rarely open up about their thoughts or feelings. • Avoidance of Family Events: They find excuses to skip family gatherings or keep their distance. If you recognize these signs in your son or daughter, don't lose hope. There is a way to bridge the gap and rebuild your relationship. The harder you try to connect, the more they pull away, leaving you heartbroken and confused. As a parent, you might be feeling: • Heartbroken: Watching your son or daughter pull away and feeling powerless to stop it • Frustrated: Every conversation seems to end in conflict or misunderstanding. • Worried: Concerned about their well-being and the growing distance between you. • Lonely: Missing the close, trusting relationship you once had. By reading this book, you'll gain the tools to transform your relationship with your son or daughter, helping them feel more secure, confident, and connected. The cycle of misunderstanding can continue unless you do something about it. Don’t let misunderstandings and conflicts define your relationship. Take the first step towards a deeper, more loving connection with your son or daughter today. "Misunderstood Sons and Daughters" offers insights and strategies to help you strengthen the most important relationship in your life.

Written for parents of children from toddlers to teens, this book gives parents a science-based plan to help their children grow up to be emotionally healthy adults. To build healthy and lasting parent-child relationships, parents need practical strategies that meet their child's needs and address the circumstances that affect their families. A parent's job unfolds and shifts over time. Concerns about sleep become worries about tantrums; anxieties about sharing become fears about grades and acting out in school. These concerns are natural, but many parents struggle to handle it all. Some feel drained, some lash out, and some feel like the worst parents in the world. This book shows parents how to use a six-step program to build a stronger relationship with their child. It teaches parents how to set parenting goals, prioritize their own emotional health, and create a structure for their family. Having laid that three-step foundation, parents learn the importance of accepting their child for who they are, containing their behavior, and acting as a leader. Prioritizing these six areas and making a plan for them will allow readers to parent proactively rather than reactively and focus on what matters most. No one can be a perfect parent, but you can be a good enough parent, one who shepherds their child toward a healthy, productive adulthood.

Discover how attachment theory can help you better understand yourself and your ex, improve your co-parenting skills, and raise happy, emotionally secure kids! If you’re like most parents, you want—more than anything—for your child to feel safe, loved, and confident that their needs will be met. However, this can be difficult when you’re sharing custody with an ex. Instead of working together, you may feel at war with one another, and in the end, nobody wins—especially your child. So, how can you ensure that you and your ex are on the same page when it comes to co-parenting? With this unique and highly practical guide, you’ll learn the science of attachment theory, and how to apply it to your co-parenting relationship. Secure attachment refers to the bond between a parent and young child, which gives that child a stable and secure basis from which to negotiate life going forward. A child with a secure base can weather the storms of trauma and life changes —such as those caused by divorce—much more easily than a child who doesn’t. Co-parents who understand this principle have a significant advantage, because they can learn how to provide secure attachment for their child, even while no longer living under the same roof. You’ll learn the “principles of engagement” for successful co-parenting: Commitment: Create certainty in the midst of change by committing to show up and be present for your child, thereby creating trust and reducing anxiety. Collaboration: Work together, with a shared vision for co-parenting, to create win-win-wins for all. Clarity: Maintain clear, concise, calm, and timely communications, thereby minimizing misunderstandings and providing accountability. Consistency: Build consistent structures in both homes to create reliable and predictable environments. Connection: Co-parents stay present and mindful with their child to help them process their emotions and to build secure attachment. Community: Cultivate community and external support systems, thereby expanding the circle of love. Co-parenting is often difficult, and sometimes it can feel like a battle. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Using the insight and wisdom in this guide, you’ll learn how to build a solid and supportive co-parenting team. And the real winner will be your kid!

Are you getting older and still want to have children? Has the traditional nuclear family set up not worked out for you? Discover the benefits of raising a child with a non-romantic partner in this unique memoir on platonic co-parenting. Platonic co-parenting, also known as intentional or elective co-parenting, refers to the arrangement in which two or more individuals, who are not romantically involved, raise a child together. Platonic co-parenting can provide a child with a supportive and loving environment as an alternative to a traditional nuclear family or single parenting. It can also offer the co-parents the opportunity to share the responsibilities and joys of raising a child without the added complications of a romantic relationship. Nick Farrow’s honest, touching and humorous memoir will show you how one man’s desire to have a child of his own led him to explore a whole new concept that would change his life forever. The book covers the key events from the twelve months leading up to the birth of his daughter in 2015 until the present day. Nick shares the obstacles and the successes, joy and tears for anyone interested in learning about, or even starting this journey for themselves.
