Child-Centered Approach: I appreciated the consistent focus on the well-being of the children and how the course emphasized minimizing conflict to create a healthy, stable environment for them.

First of all, I want to thank you for this class. It will be very helpful for my future relationship with my son and my ex-partner. Thank you for teaching me how to handle my feelings and how to take care of myself. Realizing that one of the things I have to do first is face myself in order to be okay and so that my son is okay. How to handle the stages of the breakup or separation that I am going through, and also how to motivate myself to keep moving forward after one feels that the world is falling on top of them with a situation like this. It also helped me manage things as a separated parent, understand the conflicts and how to handle them with the other foster parent. And above all, I learned how to communicate with my son and how to protect him... and have a healthy relationship with him and the co-parent... thank you.

It taught me to be a better person and a better parent. Sometimes take into consideration about mom’s suggestions and feelings about our child. Try to resolve any issue, whether big or small. Communicate in a healthy manner and not just yell at each other.

I liked that it actually made me realize my personal real life situations with my children and it explained to me exactly why some of these things were happening, like the constant lying and unexplained attitude swings.

This class helped me recognize how interactions between co-parents can escalate and how these toxic interactions can effect the child. I appreciated the tools and strategies on ways to avoid and de-escalate conflict. The class defined spousal abuse and validated my position with being the target of particular behaviors my partner has had toward me; over-riding the feedback and feelings I had that I was being dramatic or overly sensitive.

12 Hour - Parenting Without Conflict

February 8, 2025

Before the program, I considered myself a high-conflict person. There were times when I made the situation worse, sometimes inadvertently. The program helped me realize this. It has been so helpful to learn new ways to deal with conflicts. Now I can be part of the solution, and not part of the problem. One of the things I liked about this course was how easy it was to understand. I was able to relate to some of the scenarios, which helped me start to think differently. I also like that the program keeps an activity journal for later use. I plan to keep using it and have reminders to do and be better. This course gave me some valuable tools for me to become a better parent and person. It has helped me feel like I am able to, and worthy of, becoming better at co-parenting. I believe that my co-parent and I want what is best for our daughter, and I have the ability to learn and do better. Another aspect of this program that I appreciated were the other topics of divorce: financial, mental health, getting into another relationship, and most importantly, that the children can either be stunted in emotional and mental health, or thrive because of the parents' ability to focus on the child. This program gave me some valuable tools to become a better parent and person. I'm glad I had the opportunity to take it. My only regret is that I hadn't taken this course much sooner.

I liked how this class helped me to understand how our children may view themselves as a product of both of us, so it is very important to not express any of my frustrations about their dad to them. This class helped me to realize that, even though their dad and I were already at a place where we understood things weren't working out, and they could also see that, it still has an affect on the children even though they are older.

I liked all of it. It really helped me from the beginning to the end, dealing with thoughts or worries I was having. Like "is this normal?" "Why do I feel this way?" "Am I handling the breakup and my daughter healthily?". And the effects DV can have on a divorce/custody situation. And also all the options, like mediation or arbitration. Learning that you can take care of things, before it gets taken out of your hands completely by going in front of a judge.

It’s show how to talk about your partner to the kids in a positive way, and that’s how it should be; it shows how we need to work together in a positive way regarding our kids, and what’s in the best interest of the children. I liked how it showed videos of what you should do and not do when discussing things or situations with the kids. I really like this whole thing honestly and I’m glad we both had to take it so maybe the other parent will see what they are doing is not all right and how it affects the kids! Thank you for this class!
