Divorce and Coparenting During the Holidays: Practical Ways to Help Kids Transition Between Homes and Traditions
Description
For those families dealing with divorce, the holidays bring an extra layer of complexity. In this episode of Ask Alice, Alice interviews Divorce and Family Mediation and Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, Sara Hadgraft, on how to help both parents and children enjoy the Christmas season - even if it looks different from years past. She addresses visitation schedules and gift giving, as well as providing parents with the language to address both the emotional and spiritual questions about divorce that may arise as children adjust to a new normal.
