Peace is possible when you choose collaborative divorce.
The holidays; this is a wonderful time of the year, is it not? Because you, and your spouse, chose the collaborative divorce process to work through the windup of your marriage, you can enjoy the holidays with your children, with your restructured family, and your friends. All of them! How relieved they all were to find out that they didn’t need to take sides in yet another divorce war! With the help of your collaborative team, you reached an amicable resolution with your spouse which benefits not only your children, but also your extended families and your friends, as well.
And now there’s no need to worry about holiday timesharing because your collaborative team helped you both ensure that you kept your children first in your minds as you worked through your separation concerns.
So now you each can enjoy more time with your children using the parenting plan you created together, knowing that you’ve both been equipped with the collaborative communication and problem solving skills to deal with any unexpected change. Now that’s Peace on Earth and Goodwill towards Man! Peace for the holidays. Cheers to collaborative divorce!
