Continue to Provide Stability & Love for Your Children

A major concern of Florida parents going through a divorce, is the well being of their children and how a divorce will affect them.  At the Moses Law Firm in Orlando, Florida, it is our core belief that children need both parents and children should never be used as pawns in a divorce.   For the sake of your children, it is critical that you work through your differences in a respectful manner.

It’s normal for children to feel anxious about what their life will look like after their parents divorce.  Throughout the divorce process, it is critical that you reassure your children and show them that they can continue to count on their parents to provide stability and love throughout their lives.  Let your children know that even though the relationship between mom and dad will change, they can continue to have healthy, loving relationships with both of their parents.  When considering a Florida divorce attorney, remember the Moses Law Firm has helped countless families properly manage the emotional stress of a divorce using a simple three step process:

STOP-LOOK-LISTEN

1. STOP

   Stop talking negatively about your spouse.  Remember children love both parents, and they feel intense pain when negative comments or actions are directed towards someone they love.

2. LOOK

   Look towards the future in a positive way.  Children will look to see how their parents are coping with change.  Being positive will give your children the confidence to embrace the changes in their lives.

3. LISTEN

   Listen to your children and create a safe environment for them to share their fears and concerns.  Children often withdraw during times of stress and it is important for you as a parent, to set aside time regularly for you to interact with your children and choose an activity that encourages these emotions to surface.

With open communication, and on-going support your child will emerge a stronger and more resilient person, and your relationship with them even after a divorce, will be stronger.
