The Importance of a Vision Statement

Creating a vision statement at the beginning of the divorce process can serve as a crucial guiding principle. This statement helps individuals and co-parents align their intentions, reminding them to prioritize the well-being of their children above personal grievances. For instance, one speaker shared how she and her ex-husband committed to setting aside their egos and focusing on what was best for their son, emphasizing that effective co-parenting requires a common goal.
