Has your co-parenting experience as a dad been challenging? Co-parenting for any parent can be tough, but many dads face their own unique set of hurdles during and after their divorce. You’re dealing with many changes, and as a dad, staying connected to your children during this time can feel overwhelming. 

While there are many different resources available to help moms during and after divorce, dads often find themselves underserved. While going through this difficult time, you may feel lost when trying to find the advice and personalized guidance you need (and deserve!).

Are you feeling a mix of emotions after your separation or divorce? It’s totally normal to feel uncertainty, stress, and even sadness. You and your ex probably just want to “move on,” but you still have your kids to think about and care for.

Even though it can feel very daunting at the moment, taking the time to create a clear, well-thought-out co-parenting plan can make a huge difference in the long run. You’re taking an essential step toward ensuring your kids' well-being and happiness.

When it comes to raising happy and well-adjusted kids, few things are more important than a strong relationship with both parents. Whether the parents live together or in separate homes, the bond that each kid shares with their parent plays a critical role in their development – both emotionally and psychologically.

Transitions are difficult for most people. One of the most challenging shifts a parent has to make is transitioning from a married couple (in one home) to a co-parent (in two separate homes). Clinging to familiarity during this time may feel helpful, but it can have the opposite effect.

Divorce is a challenge for many families. It’s a time filled with heightened emotions and lots of changes, including living arrangements. With so many changes happening all at once, it can also be a scary time – especially for kids.

If you ask any parent currently going through a separation or divorce what their top concern is, most have the same answer – their kids. Just because you and your partner are no longer a couple doesn’t change the fact that your kids will always be your #1 priority.

The person you once thought would be your partner forever turned out not to be – and that’s okay. People change. Situations change. Divorce is difficult, but there’s a whole other level of challenges when you’re raising kids together.

Dealing with co-parenting post-breakup can be challenging, especially when things end on a sour note. But here’s the silver lining: it’s possible to maintain a positive co-parenting dynamic despite any lingering hard feelings.
