Testamonials from co-parents …

  “We both needed to realize that our child needed to come first and all of our little problems and feuds needed to be let go. We had a more important job to do and that was to raise our child together. A divorce is hard for parents to go through but even harder for a child. I believe this class helped me out a lot and will help us [co-parents] to better communicate and raise our child together in the long run.”

   “I want my children to no longer feel the tension between myself and my co-parent. I have learned how to disconnect from my co-parent for my children and I hope that you learn this valuable lesson.”
