3. CHILDREN AND DIVORCE
Conflict & parenting: customize your post-separation parenting relationship
When you go to the library or browse through a book store, there are many books for divorcing parents, most of which have some version of the following message: "You must communicate with the other parent for the children's sake, no matter how you feel about him/her."

4. RELATIONSHIPS
Reinventing relationships
Your marital relationship is over, but what about your relationship with your in-laws, their relationship with your children, or even your relationship with your ex-spouse's new Significant Other? What is healthy and appropriate? Since no one has written the new rules and codes of social conduct for relationships engendered by divorce, we asked some experts to share their insights with us.

5. MEDIATION
Family-centered divorce
Divorce is never easy on a family, but the use of divorce mediation, rather than the adversarial process, can enable divorcing couples to approach the divorce from a family-centered perspective, making constructive plans for parenting after divorce.
