Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although in an ideal situation, parents would be happily married, in a relationship, or at least able to parent together without problems, in many of our realities, unfortunately, the ideal situation does not exist. We currently live in a world where millions of families are headed by single parents, more than 40% of children are being raised without their fathers, thousands of blended families form every day, and children who live in a divided or blended family are three times more likely to need psychological counseling than other children. Mrs. Grayson attributes much of this amplified need for psychological counseling to the co-parenting woes that often come with the territory of being in a divided family. The Business of Co-Parenting: for Dads, is the second book of a ground-breaking series written for parents who are struggling with either making the transition into a divided family or struggling with co-parenting peacefully. In this book, Mrs. Grayson applies her experience as a wife, mother, step-mother, and Family Law Attorney and shares practical solutions to common problems many fathers face including denied visitation, alienation, legal disputes, the "deadbeat" zone, and more. The first book of the series, The Business of Co-Parenting for Single Moms, released in 2013 and is an excellent companion to the book for dads, as it shares practical solutions to the common issues single moms face. The series will provide insight and equip parents of divided/blended families with a unique perspective and many surprising, yet needed techniques to take control of their divided family so they may live drama free and focus on what is truly in the best interest of their child.

Book excerpt: Men and women not only have naturally different communication styles, but unique approaches to parenting as well. While mothers tend to overprotect their kids, fathers tend to push them toward independence. And whereas many experts tend to advocate ''a united front,'' Drs. Kyle and Marsha Pruett reveal how Mom and Dad not always being on exactly the same page - which, initially, may seem to cause conflict - can actually strengthen the whole family. Informed by the Pruetts' research and extensive experience with parents and children, Partnership Parenting offers a new outlook. In addition to fascinating biological insights, the book features strategies for negotiating common ''landmine situations'' from birth to age eight, from discipline and bedtime to helping kids with homework and teaching them responsibility.

Download or read book Co parenting 101 written by Deesha Philyaw and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A successful co-parenting relationship is as vital to your child's well-being and health as nutritious food or proper exercise. Research, anecdotal evidence, and plain common sense all point to the fact that children are happier, healthier, and better adjusted when both of their parents play an active role in their lives. Studies also show that the trauma children experience in the wake of a divorce or separation can be lessened when they see their parents getting along. Kids whose parents successfully co-parent feel more secure than those who have limited or no connection to one of their parents post divorce. Co-Parenting 101 is based on the premise that co-parenting is a must, not an option. The involvement of both parents—not just the primary guardian—is the cornerstone of successful co-parenting. This is the first book written by a formerly married couple for whom co parenting is central to their day to day lives, and it offers a comprehensive, personal, and upfront look at how to effectively raise kids with an ex-spouse. Authors Deesha Philyaw and Michael D. Thomas, the creators of the popular co-parenting website, co-parenting101.org, share their own experiences raising their children together, as well as provide professional advice from co-parenting experts. Through practical tips combined with expert parental strategies, this book a great resource for divorced parents with children. For parents, less time stressed out about legal wrangling means more time to be fully present and engaged with the children. By learning to put their animosity aside, parents can focus on putting their kids first.
