Child Custody Case That Involves Co-Parenting Classes in Albuquerque, New Mexico

 

 

CHILD CUSTODY CASES THAT INVOLVE CO-PARENTING CLASSES IN ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO

 

In the midst of a divorce with children, or during child custody disputes, parents often experience problems communicating and reaching mutual agreements on any number of issues that ultimately impact the children. Parents can also have wildly different ideas about the proper and effective ways to raise a child while living in separate homes.

At times, one parent may point a finger at the co-parent, accusing the other parent of being a “Disney Land Co-Parent” that tries to buy the child’s affection through trips, toys, entertainment, and an overall lack of structure. The other parent may fire back, claiming that the opposite parent is nothing more than a “Drill Sergeant Parent” that drowns the child with rules, regulations, requirements, and punishments.

Children face a number of potential obstacles when they are raised in separate homes with contrasting parenting styles. When separate homes lack unity and agreement, the children may learn to manipulate each parent and their chosen parenting style. Children may take advantage of the “Disney Land Parent,”   portraying one parent as excessively strict, or otherwise pit one parent against the other in a strategic effort to guide one parent towards a desired result.
