CoParenting After Divorce: A GPS For Healthy Kids Paperback – May 12, 2015

Often enough, those of us working in the field of parental capacity and parenting time matters are asked for a reference that might be helpful. What is, seemingly, unintentionally implied by attorneys and parents is that they want a book that simplifies the very complex and difficult circumstance experienced by children and adults entwined in these processes. As may be readily apparent, those two polarities often do not go together. That is, one of these things is often not like the other. Despite the natural Hegelian dialectic created by such requests Dr. Carter has, likely through great efforts, distilled a book that actually does simplify and explain the very complex and difficult prospect of guiding those involved in these processes through the myriad of hazards involved. It is authoritative, its flow makes sense to attorneys and parents, and they are able to use it as a reference guide again and again; as if triangulating their positions amid a vast wilderness repeatedly. It keeps the best interest of the children at the forefront of the process, while empathically guiding the adults involved. I would strongly recommend it as a helpful guide to those working in the field of forensic family law as well as parents engaged in what can be a very bewildering process as they come to terms with the matters that have lead them to this point in their lives.Michael R.
