Getting divorced, separating from your partner, single parenting and trying to co-parent may likely be some of the most stressful things you will experience. There are changes on every level, and here are your children, the most important thing in your life, who will be experiencing the changes as well.
Finalizing your parenting plan lets both parents and children know when they will be together. This helps to create new roles, clear expectations and a new lifestyle which will help everyone succeed. When the details of a schedule, holidays and vacations are established, you and your child can learn new routines, create new traditions and move forward. Ultimately, this will help you focus on the job you love—being their parent.
