I thought I was the only one going through this whole situation. I have been divorced for two years and my ex-husband has been very difficult, and a the end he puts it on on me. I don't see light at the end of the tunel. My attorney referred me to this program and I hope I can finally improve my son's and both (my x's and mine) our lives. That's if he agrees to join it...which right now it's been very difficult. - from Erika Bernal on 7/12/2007

So far family wizard has put a stop to the harrassing phone calls from the exwife. The phone calls start out with pertinent info about the child, but turn into a screaming fit a rage within seconds. This service forces her to keep it to the point and only discuss matters regarding the child, not her personal opinions on my husband or myself. Worth every penny. - from Nicole Hezlitt on 7/1/2007

Previously I worked with a software company that developed software for the K12 and state and local governments. I am very please to see a company who has taken the time and care to develop a piece of software that is capable of removing the conflict and unsettleing enviornment created by our adviserial court systems. This is a far better choice for families then the arena we call the family court. - from KENT GENOVESE on 4/11/2007

I wanted to say thanks for your website. A must for divorce situations. The ex resisted for nearly a year in using your website until I pushed it in Court and it was Court ordered. All the right info. is there for both parties. I am a father with sole custody. The ex's Attorney continued to be harrassing and intervening with visitation however this website took her out of the equation. A great communication route / tool. - from D. Wylie on 4/10/2007

We are very much looking forward to using this site!! It has become nearly impossible to have a conversation with the children's mother, without her turning it into an argument. We are hoping that use of this website will put a stop to her putting the children in the middle once and for all. - from Scott & Lisa Levy on 3/3/2007

This look to be a very good tool for this dfficult time am having with my ex, and a easy way to keep up to date records. - from Eddie R on 11/6/2006

This site was suggested to me by an Orange County Police Officer after responding to a call I placed for assistance in retrieving my son from his Father when he lost temp custody of him. My son's father has been very difficult to deal with for the past 5 years. Whenever I try and communicate any time-sensitive info with him, such as: visitation, vacation plans, school events, schedule changes - he uses a method of "avoidance by: phone: -He does not answer -Does not return call - or - -Just hangs up on me. If I write it out and try and hand it to him on a child-exchange confrontation -He throws it back at me - or - -returns our son and (doents tucked in our son's belongings). As a final resort I have e-mailed and since then - turned to faxing to his home. -He presents this as "harrassment" when we go to court. I am looking forward to utlizing this tool so that my son can lead a normal life. His father will no longer be able to "pretend" he is un-informed and wreak havoc in our lives anymore. I am very excited about this - I am seeing some light at the end of a very long tunnel that I have had to endure for 5 long years. - from Marguerite MIlls on 10/25/2006

This program has helped tremendously w/ finding out what's going on in my daughters lives. My ex & I have very little to no communication to avoid past problems and esp. arguements. We have a wonderful parenting time consultant who is able to ck on the communication & be the voice of reason when needed just by reading our msgs. The calendar is great. I add things as I find them out. Unfortunately I am not the custodial parent nor is my ex interested in joint physical custody. I just have to rely on this program for daily info. which is very helpful. My daughters think it's great when I ask how something went even though I wasn't there or couldn't remind them that they were doing something that day! It shows I'm interested even if I'm not there on a daily basis. I have the right to be involved, and this program has helped in making that happen. - from Matt on 6/5/2006

This is the most fabulous website! It is very comprehensive, yet easy to use, helps ensure communication is relevant and polite, and is a great organizational tool for what can be a complicated matter. I highly recommend it to all divorced families! Also, when I have had questions, the staff immediately returned my call and were very helpful and patient. It is a life saver! - from Evamarie G. Musum on 5/31/2006

The web site is great, my x-husband lives in Mn and we have major communication problems, now my daughter doesn't have to deal with us going between her. - from heidi on 4/24/2006

My husband and I are having a difficult time dealing with his ex and he has not been able to visit with his daughter without interruption from his ex. Since we've been going through legal stuff she's been trying to plan our schedule and play games with us. We've driven 18 hours one way to see his daughter only to find that she couldn't go with us. All of a sudden there has been an issue with me as and my child coming with my husband. It's such a long drive that if he were to come alone he'd have to fly. I hope that the judge orders this program for us so that we can schedule some reasonable visitation with his daughter. - from Marcy, stepmother on 4/2/2006

This is wonderful. - from Rohit on 1/28/2006

WOW! A judge told me about your website and I just reviewed it. My 15 years of practicing family law would have been much easier for my clients and myself had this program been around. Congrats! I look forward to requiring my clients to use it and I WILL spread the word. E.Romero - from Ernesto Romero on 1/11/2006

This seems like such a valuable tool. Communication has been extremely difficult and our hope is to alleviate some of the issues at hand with this website. The children should always come first regardless of the situation or cirstance. - from Cynthia Garay on 11/30/2005

Our Family Wizard has made it so much better on our children during and post divorce. My ex husband and I have been users of the site since November 2003. It has helped us "clearly" communicate schedules, expenses and child support as well as general communication about our kids. My x-husband was not a computer user but when we were starting our divorce process and this was introduced to us I did not know if he would use it. Today we continue to use it frequently to keep track of all of the things to do with the kids. Thanks so much for creating such a great tool for divorced parents. Expense Summary We have found this to be a great tool to keep track of medical co-pays and child support payments. It's also very helpful at the end of the year for tax purposes. Messages This has been invaluable. When we are disagreeing on issues we just use this method of communication so the kids don't have to listen to any bickering. It also gives parents a solid history of what has been agreed to for vacations, switches, etc.. Calendar This is invaluable with 3 kids. My x-husband and his wife can pull the calendar up at any time to see what the kids have going on with their busy schedules. Information I really like the information section for the kids when they travel with their dad. It allows him to have their medical records at his finger tips. We also use it for relatives when shopping for holidays/birthdays. Overall, the wizard has truly helped my kids. I think every divorce involving children should be required to use Our Family Wizard. Thank you for helping me and my kids. - from Valory Gilpin on 9/15/2005

Other than some testing issues, I think this is a wonderful tool, and as a former database programmer and mother of 2 I really like this tool. Look forward to some of the applications being refined to take some issues out of beta testing. Log in screen can be confusing between parent and professional based on who paid for the access. Deb - from Deborah on 8/4/2005

I just want to thank 'Judge Sage', Gregg county Tx, for ordering Family Wizard as a communication tool for my case. It's amazing! Thank you. I should have no problem seeing my daughter now. This will also stop all of the harrising letters and disruption to my family by my ex-wife and also allow me to saty on top of all the things I need to. Again, Thank you Judge. - from Raymond Ferguson, Jr. on 6/24/2005

Signed in by Lily - from Dr. Miguel A. Firpi, Ph.D. on 6/16/2005

This is am amazing interactive program that brings hope to families who are in adversarial situations. i will certainly recommend it to families in my practice. the ability to have another individual access the data is invaluable in obtaining a well rounded picture of what is happenning in the family. - from sylma fine on 5/23/2005

I Have looked at this, and I think it will help with my divorce. It is really awesome!!! - from Jerry on 5/10/2005

I really like this web site. I find it very user friendly, quick and inexpensive. The support staff has always been helpful and courteous when I've called regarding my account. Thanks," Jai", for your help. - from Deborah Perez on 4/28/2005

I am interesting in information about this website. I am hoping it will be an unbiased way for my ex husband and I to communicate for our childresn sake. - from Paula Parker on 3/22/2005

I am looking forward to this opportunity to help families cooperate in the care of their children. - from Linda Van Der Werf on 3/10/2005

i am so excited about using this...will it do me any good though, if my sons' father doesn't participate? - from mary cummings on 3/9/2005

Looks promising. - from Tracy on 2/23/2005

My daughter-in law and my son are in the US Navy. My wife and I are taking care of my 8 month old grandson while the kids serve our country. We use My Family Wizzard as a vehicle to store my grandsons vital medical records and to create a journal of his "first events" in his life. My daughter in-law is in the Persian Gulf aboard the USS Milius on deployment, my son has just gotten out of the Navy after a four year stint. This website gives us all the ability to communicate my grandsons life by just logging on. God bless you . Tom Parrow - from Thomas Parrow on 1/30/2005

As a first time user the site was very friendly and allowed to me put in all my information in a way that did not take very much time. It will be nice to keep updating on the site for years to come. - from Eddie on 1/22/2005

I am excited to be a part of this effort to resolve conflict and increase harmony over our kids. We discovered this site through both our attorneys during mediation. As a mother who has been in court for nine years about children, I see this site as a solution that fits our needs to communicate without conflict. I encourage anyone I know who has similar issues in their lives to connect with ourfamilywizard. Also, I hope that in the future, it will be a required part of divorce proceedings, just as the KIDS FIRST program is required in some counties in our state. I want to thank those responsible for working so hard for creating this tool to improve parenting after divorce. - from Pamela on 12/22/2004

This looks like a fantastic tool. I read about the site in the recent Wall Street Journal article. I have been divorced since 1995 and have 3 daughters with shared custody. They are all older now (ages 17-23). Having lived through the issues typical in divorced families, I can see this would be a great tool to solve many of the issues divorced parents face. I wish this was available years ago, I would highly recommend considering this investment! - from Mark Koch on 11/20/2004

I enjoyed taking the tour and am interested in becoming a member myself - from Dolene Brunelli on 11/5/2004

Never Better......Even if you are not having parenting issues this really helps with the organization of your childrens records. You can access the information almost anywhere and it really makes conflict resolution simple and eliminates parents feelings, focusing on the children....that is what this is all about.....Thanks Guys 5 out of 4 stars - from Mark Cornell on 6/2/2004

I have been a divorce mediator for seven years specializing in parenting plans and co parenting issues. I also teach conflict management and communication classes and the Parents Forever Divorce Education as a a mandatory part of the mediation process. All I can say is, "Way to go, people!" I will be referring all of my clients to your site. - from Lois Warner on 4/13/2004

I just learned of this interactive tool, and will be referring my clients to it! Thank you! - from Carolyn Rowe, MA,LPC-I on 3/30/2004

From what I have seen so far, this program has great potential of assisting broken families to regain essential communication. I'm willing to try it with ours. - from Colleen N. on 2/25/2004

There should be more info out there about this tool, especially for problem divorces, where communication is troublesome. - from Tess Kleindienst on 2/22/2004

How did the Divorce effect your children? - from Beth on 1/28/2004

My divorce attorney and the parenting consultant both insist OurFamilyWizard.com is the best way to facilitate caring for our child. I particularly like the objective tracking features of the website. There's no argument about who said what (or didn't) and when. The data is all there for parents and their third party legal help. - from anonymous on 1/8/2004

I just wanted to let you know that we are enjoying Our Family Wizard. I have had more contact with my children, who live in Iowa, than ever before. They enjoy using the computer and it is easier than trying to phone them as they always seem to be unavailable when I call. - from Kathy on 12/29/2003

I saw the article in Working Mother and immediately looked at the site. I am impressed and will tell my clients and colleagues. - from Allyson Block on 12/24/2003

I just read an article about your website in "Working Mother". I viewed your online tour, and this is a wonderful program! I am going to see if I can get my daughter's father to agree to using this site. Just yesterday he served me with contempt of court...again. I would love to have a better forum to handle our co-parenting. Going to court only causes more tension and resentment. I feel really good about this program. We were never married and had our daugther at a very young age. We have a long history of conflict, that seems to have only gotten worse now that we are both married and have more children with our current spouses. Even if he doesn't agree to use this site, I plan to sign up so that I can keep track of the visitation schedule, appointments, and shared expenses. - from Tiffanie on 12/11/2003

You shouldn't wait for a judge or a guardian to order you to use this. This is a wonderful program and it has helped our family tremendously. - from Tom on 2/18/2003

Going through a divorce (we have nine year old twins)with little to NO verbal communication. Am hoping judge will find this a good idea for the benefit of the kids. - from Scott Mann on 12/20/2002

To Whom It May Concern: I'm writing to you on behalf of Our Family Wizard, a new and innovative Internet product available to families who are transitioning through separation and/or divorce, or for those parties who have common children. I believe that this product will greatly benefit any families who are transitioning through family change, especially those who have high levels of conflict or struggle with communication issues. Although a division of family can be final, the commitment to our children is a lifelong commitment and for the sake of the children, parents must come up with a workable way to communicate. This organization is providing parents with a user-friendly tool to plan for the needs and scheduling of their children, along with other valuable information that both parents need to be well informed about their children. I am the program director of The Storefront Group's divorce education programs for parents and children in the Twin Cities metro area. Our divorce education programs have been approved as certified divorce education programs by the Minnesota Supreme Court and provide service to more than 2,000 children and parents each year. Respectfully submitted, Anita Miller - from Anita Miller on 10/17/2002

So many of the disputes that bring families back to court time and time again involve communication breakdowns. "Ourfamilywizard.com" provides families with an excellent communication vehicle that when used regularly should substantially reduce the need to come back to court. More important, regular use should help reduce the level of animosity between parents that can be so harmful to children. Even families not involved in court proceedings should benefit from "Ourfamilywizard.com." It is an effective tool that allows parents to plan and implement the kind of schedules and transportation demands faced by working parents with busy children. --Judge James T. Swenson - from Judge James T. Swenson on 10/16/2002
