Co-Parenting Class concepts:

  1. Divorce is a change in a family, not an end to a family.

  2. Children's ages and needs are the first consideration when making family decisions.

  3. The family lifestyle as the child sees and experiences it impacts adjustment.

  4. Ages and stages in a child's development determine appropriate parenting activities, divorce explanations, and family lifestyles that meet children's emotional, educational, social, physical and spiritual needs.

  5. Co-parenting is a lifelong process that goes beyond current issues of divorce settlement.

  6. Stress, change, stages of divorce, and stages of grief impact children and families. Good management techniques strengthen children and the family.

  7. Children and families need continuing support services.
