Divorce Doesn't Put An End To Conflict
Divorce ends a marriage, if there is conflict it will continue on, in some cases long after the divorce is final. Take my situation for example. I've been divorced since 1999, a very long time. My ex-husband is still an angry man, one who periodically reaches in and makes waves.

Will Your Child Need Post-Divorce Therapy?
Whether or not my children would need therapy wasn't a question I had to ask myself. The way their father broke the news of our divorce to them assured they would. Thanks to him and his approach to his divorce from me, our children were in therapy before he had even filed for divorce. And, they benefited greatly from having a third party help them deal with the stress generated by our divorce.

Children from divorced families are more likely to exhibit behavioral problems in school and with peer groups. One of the major influences on whether or not your child will have behavioral problems is the relationship between child and parent. In other words, the healthier and more stable your relationship the less likely your child will suffer behavioral problems after your divorce.

Children need honesty, age appropriate honesty when it comes to the details of their parent's divorce.

It also breaks their trust and if there is one thing a child needs during the divorce of parents, it is two parents they can trust.

The Last Thing You Need Is A Divorce Lawyer!
The Benefits of Divorce Mediation
The divorce process is so complicated most people just don’t want to deal with it on their own. Traditionally the process of getting a divorce has involved hiring lawyers, going to court and letting a judge or the lawyers decide and/or negotiate the outcome. The couple plays the most passive role in the legal drama. Because the decisions are coming from above instead of the couple themselves fashioning a result, it is often difficult for the couple to comfortably live with the final outcome.
No BS Divorce Strategies For Men
Most people resent solutions that are imposed on them. It is natural that individuals are more satisfied when they get to decide for themselves instead of being told what to do. When the couple is more actively involved in creating the terms of their own divorce instead of having to put up with the “one size fits all” solution that the legal process gives them, there is a better fit and more of a commitment to make it work.
So here is the most important question, does it make sense to avoid the adversarial system for your divorce? If keeping out of court and saving money on legal fees while protecting your assets and co-parenting relationship sounds good to you, then you really ought to explore mediation. I am not saying mediation is for everyone, but if the two of you are decent people who just want out, no one is trying to hurt the other one and both of you are honest and reliable about money with enough honor to keep your word, then you are the perfect client for mediation.
What A Mediator Does
The attorney who acts as mediator does not represent either party but acts as a neutral facilitator who is a resource for both. The couple can ask the attorney/mediator legal questions and receive help in arriving at all the terms of their divorce. The mediator drafts the marital settlement agreement, which is the document that is attached to the Judgment. The judge signs the agreement without the couple ever going to court and the divorce becomes final 6 months from the day the initial papers were filed and served. When the mediator has a powerful intention to complete the divorce process instead of dragging it out, the results are miraculous.
How Much Does Mediation Cost?
Prices for mediation are determined by expertise and where you are located so make several calls, interview several mediators to make sure you are fully informed. In my own practice the whole process, on average, takes between 4-7 hours but there is certain homework that must be done prior to working with me. Ask the mediator what percentage of their cases settle and how many meetings did it take. In California the average cost when both sides have their own attorney is $40,000 so whatever the mediator charges will be a tiny fraction of that. The financial benefits of mediation are obvious but more importantly, you will be comfortable enough with your spouse to co-parent your children. This is the best gift you can give to your children. I ought to know, I was one of those kids caught in the middle. This is why I do what I do. Using mediation instead of litigation brings some sanity back into the divorce process because the adversarial system destroys families. So ask yourself, what kind of divorce do you want? Peaceful divorce is an idea whose time has come.
How To Choose A Mediator
So let’s assume you want to proceed with mediation. You want to make sure the mediator you use has a great track record. The most important thing you want to know is how many couples have they worked with and what percentage settled. Once you find that out you can compare price, length of time it takes and other factors like personality and sex of the mediator before you make up your mind. The important thing is to have all the information you need to make an informed decision. Remember you only get one chance to have a “good divorce” so don’t go down the wrong road because you won’t like the destination.
Is Mediation Right For You
Divorce mediation works best with honest people who are not hiding assets and just want a result that is fair. Most couples who are in the initial stages of thinking about getting a divorce would do well to meet with a divorce mediator as opposed to hiring their own attorneys. You only get one chance at getting a divorce without acrimony. Once you start to go down that adversarial road, it is that much harder to get back to a place where you can function comfortably as co-parents.
Ms. Rachman has been a family law attorney since 1996 and is convinced our adversarial legal system destroys families. She left a successful adversarial law practice and now only does divorce mediation. To find out more information on how mediation differs from litigation, go to http://www.divorce-inaday.com

Self Help Child Custody – 4 Tips to Gain Child Custody With Subliminal Help
These are difficult times. And many of us feel it in our wallets. And getting solid, proven Child Custody information when facing a divorce definitely is one of the basics. And, without knowledge of the basics of Child Custody, how can you get started? Below is a great articles on the subject. It lays everything out nicely, it's easy to read and understand and when you're done, you'll know which direction to take given your circumstances.
Self Help Child Custody â€" 4 Tips to Gain Child Custody With Subliminal Help
By Nelson Berry
Are you facing a child custody battle? Such battles can be very complicated. The court takes several factors into consideration when deciding who to best award with custody of a child. For the best interest of the child, the court will choose the parent who meets the following criteria:
• Financially stable
• Mentally and physically healthy
• Provide a safe environment for the child
• Has a stronger parental bond with the child
• Preferred by the child if the child is older than 12 years old (this is not a major criteria since children are usually expected to choose parents who will be more permissive or less strict)
Now, you have enough time to prepare your case, so make sure you use that time wisely. Preparation can greatly improve your chances. Here are a few tips that should come in handy.
No BS Divorce Strategies For Men
1. Watch out for the blows. Since you are competing with another person, you should expect some blows from the opposition party. The other parent is expected to pinpoint certain sides of your lifestyle and your personality to try and put you in a negative light. No one is perfect, so somewhere along the way, it is normal that you made some mistakes. And the other party can easily take advantage and distort these mistakes to show that you are irresponsible and do not deserve custody.
And remember, once the other party starts giving the blows, don't be tempted to take out your own guns. Playing the blaming game won't add any points in your favor. The parent who acts most maturely and reacts more rationally will get extra points for being emotionally and mentally stable throughout the process.
You may view some subliminal videos before going to court; these videos can help clear up your mind and enable you to think and react more sensibly. They can also help boost your confidence and charisma so you can exude a calm and confident aura that may just improve your image in the eyes of the judge.
2. Work out your schedule. Being a parent is not about holding the title of “mother” or “father.” It's about who really takes time for the child, who has spent more meaningful experiences and bonding times with the child, and who has taken an active participation in the life of the child.
Due to the growing concern for children's welfare in this society where both parents usually now work, the court also looks more kindly upon the parent who spends more waking time with the child. So before your schedule can be used against you, make sure to work it out before the trial. Spend more time with your child, be involved, and open communication lines.
There are also some subliminal videos that can help develop better time and task management skills.
3. Participate in Parent-Teacher Association. There are extra points for the parent who actively participates in Parent-Teacher Association in the child's school. Participation shows that the parent has an active interest in the education of the child.
4. Clean up your act. Do you have any bad habits that can be used against you? Whether you want to face the facts or not, your ties with alcohol or drugs can greatly endanger your case, even if you ace all other factors in the criteria. Alcohol or drug habits indicates that there is a chance that the child may be subject to negative influence or alcohol and drug abuse as well.
One of the fastest and most effective ways of attaining freedom from these negative habits is the use of subliminal messages. Subliminal messages are effective in removing habits that have embedded themselves in your personality. Just by watching subliminal videos every day can bring such a huge improvement and finally sever the ties you have with these endangering habits.
