Spring is a busy time of year if you have kids. Spring sports, dance and music recitals, work, end of year school functions, vacations, camps, and many other commitments leave you feeling like you are racing from one event to the next. Co-parenting during the busiest times of the year can be extremely challenging and overwhelming. Communication with your ex is extremely important as you navigate drop off and pick up times, changes to a custody agreement and important information about decisions that need to be made quickly. Mediation is ideally suited for communication between co-parents.
Strategies for Co-Parenting after Divorce
Co-parenting requires clear communication, flexibility, patience, the ability to problem solve even when emotions are involved and a keen eye on the wellbeing of your kids. It is impossible for a child custody agreement or parenting plan to be able to cover every single decision. So, if you run into an issue when things are busy or you just cannot resolve a disagreement or conflict, you want to be able to resolve it quickly, without spending a lot of additional time or money. Johnson Mediation can help you resolve issues that come up in your custody agreement without having to take the issue to court.

Our staff offers a wide variety of co-parenting mediation services to help you navigate the bumps in the road. Our post-divorce mediation services are the most trusted in the Minnesota area.
