Customer Reviews

Why ruin your kids while you try to re-invent the wheel?

My simple message: Do yourself and your kids a favor. Get this book. It covers mundane stuff like keeping Junior's socks from piling up at dad's house as well as the heavier issues, like how to not turn your kids into weapons. Don't try to go it alone. It was the best money I spent in a long time.

Immediate first aid from a psychotherapist/lawyer

If you're distraught about any aspect of your divorce and you want some immediate first-aid, this is a great book. I have followed a lot of the suggestions and find myself referring to it over and over again. It's easy to get into and you can start in anywhere, topic by topic.

A tight, easy-to-read and very useful book.

This is a wonderful book that helped me and my ex solve so many of the problems--large and small--that hassle us and ultimately spilled over into our childrens' lives. If you can only buy one book on co-parenting, this is it. The knowledge you'll gain from it is the best gift you can give your kids.

Excellent practical how-to guide that promotes cooperation.

I am a psychiatrist with a full time private practice. I see individuals and couples, often in great pain. I welcome any tool that can help promote health and healing. Co-Parenting After Divorce definitely fits the bill. I have recommended this easy to read how-to guide time and again and have been very pleased with the results. To succeed as co-parents after divorce, couples who have been unable to make their marriage last must create a new working relationship. Co-Parenting After Divorce is a useful tool to help newly divorced parents focus on their children in a constructive way in spite of their differences. For anyone going through this painful and difficult time, I heartily recommend this book.

Practical help on doing right by your kids after divorce.

Diana Shulman is to be commended! This is a marvelous, straight to the point little book that helped my ex and I get our heads on straight about how to keep our children's mental health intact. It's punchy and practical with lots of day-to-day hints on making the shuffle between Mom's and Dad's households as simple and untraumatic (for everyone) as possible. It's amazing how much useful wisdom can come in such a small, inexpensive package. If you are co-parenting a child you won't regret buying this book.
