Parenting plans can be as tricky as untangling a pair of headphones, and Mandy Friedman LPCC-S is here to explore the cost of fairness in family court schedules. Joined by Melanie Mize, a licensed family law attorney, and Michelle Minette, a certified holistic life coach, this episode tackles the delicate balance between parental rights and what's best for the kids.
They dig into the nitty-gritty of parenting schedules like the 223 and 225 plans, which aim to provide equal time for both parents but may not always align with a child's developmental needs. Melanie and Michelle offer their expertise on how these plans affect young children, who often require routine and stability. They discuss the challenges of frequent transitions between homes and how this impacts a child's sense of security.
Ever tried packing for a holiday only to realise you've forgotten something crucial? Imagine doing that every week with your favourite teddy bear! The trio also highlight the importance of considering holidays in parenting plans and the potential disruption to cherished family traditions. The conversation takes a turn towards high-conflict divorces, where parenting plans can become battlegrounds for power struggles rather than focusing on the child's well-being.
Melanie and Michelle advocate for parallel parenting classes to equip parents with skills to manage conflict and protect their children during tumultuous times. If you're pondering how fairness plays out in family court schedules, this episode is a must-listen. It's packed with practical advice and insights that could help you navigate these complex waters. So, why not dive in and see what resonates with your situation?
