Building Bridges: Effective Co-Parenting After High-Conflict Divorce provides a comprehensive roadmap for parents struggling to raise children together after a contentious divorce. Unlike generic co-parenting advice that assumes cooperative relationships, this practical guide directly addresses the unique challenges of high-conflict dynamics with realistic strategies that work even when your co-parent seems unwilling to cooperate.
Discover how to:
- Transform hostile communications into business-like exchanges using the proven BIFF method (Brief, Informative, Friendly, Firm)
- Implement parallel parenting techniques that minimize interaction while maximizing effective childcare
- Create detailed, legally-sound parenting plans that prevent common conflicts before they start
- Shield your children from adult tensions while supporting their relationships with both parents
- Establish and maintain boundaries that protect your emotional wellbeing
- Navigate custody transitions, holiday arrangements, and schedule changes without escalating conflict
- Recognize when to engage and when disengagement is the healthier option
- Manage emotional triggers that can lead to counterproductive responses
- Identify when professional intervention is necessary and which resources can help
Through compelling real-life examples, you'll meet parents who have successfully navigated similar challenges—from managing provocative texts and hostile exchanges to creating "safe zones" where children can thrive despite ongoing parental conflict. Each chapter builds on practical skills that help reduce tension, improve communication, and create more stable environments for children caught between conflicting households.
