I have had over a dozen parents reach out to me this year with this problem. So, I went to someone I trust to help find a solution. Divorce and child-custody are an unfortunate part of the world we live in today. Traditional courtroom-first methods lead to immediate battle and one-upmanship to see who will be the winner. This always leads to the child being the loser. In this game, parents will often use technology as a weapon to dig at the other parent. Some will give their child a phone, a gaming system or access to social media in their quest to gain the spot as the favorite parent or have loser rules at their house. It is "do my kids like me more" over #betheparent thinking. Rebecca Simpson from ELPO Law sat down with me to talk about a different way. a way that takes the fight out before it starts and gives the child a voice.
