For many parents, getting past the emotional debris of a separation or divorce can be challenging to overcome, particularly when you find yourself facing the reality of having to raise children together. The truth of the matter is that you may always carry some emotional baggage with you, but you can work towards getting over the anxiety of interacting with them by employing the right tools to help you. Communicating with your co-parent using the technology available on the OurFamilyWizard website can contribute to reducing the stress of discussing contentious topics such as the parenting schedule or shared expenses. It does so by getting you both to focus on the facts without the frivolous commentary that creates arguments and confusion. When there's less tension surrounding your interactions with your co-parent, you are left with more time to maintain focus on yourself and on cultivating the positive aspects of your new life.
