parents and professionals covers the legal, financial, and
emotional realities of creating two happy and stable homes for
children in the aftermath of a divorce, including custody
arrangements, mediation, and more.

arrangements; custody types; attorneys; how to get ready for
negotiations; when to use mediation; using "HIRT" test when an
agreement is broken.
- Breaking away from "negative intimacy" with a difficult ex; how
to talk to your former mate; steps to building a "businesslike"
relationship as parents; how to avoid becoming the neighborhood
"soap opera"
