25.01.2022 Separation and divorce are some of the most difficult and painful things you can experience in life. And while you are facing the overwhelming reality of this, you may feel completely drained and at sea. Parenting is difficult at the best of times, but how can you parent well when life is so difficult? Especially since your children are also going through a very hard time in their lives? In this Podcast I talk about spending time with your children during separation. I talk ...about the essential shift in mindset that you need to make that will not only transform your children's lives, but your life as well. If you are a parent going through separation, this is the Podcast for you. If you know others in the same situation, share it with them. http://naomidouglas.com.au/running-on-empty/

07.01.2022 Here's the thing, whether you go to court or not-you still have to coparent outside of court. Parents who become embroiled in legal battles usually find themselves turning to their lawyer to report every coparenting incident they have. You need to recognise that long after your lawyer has banked your last cheque, you will still need to function as a coparent with your ex. And no matter how many items get typed up into a court order, there will still be the reality of parentin...g indoor daily life and the unexpected challenges and differences of opinion. If you want your children to be healthy and happy (and isn't that what ALL this is about?) then you need to learn three things. 1) to function as coparents 2) to solve problems between you 3) to minimise conflict Some parents will engage in legal battles and some won't I will discuss the things ALL parents must face whether they go to court or not, the dangers of heading out into the battlefield, and the possibility of putting down your arms and calling a truce.

05.01.2022 http://naomidouglas.com.au/the-third-way/ There are three types of coparenting, and you basically have to choose one of them. The first is Cooperative Coparenting. This is a coparenting system in which the two parents have a lot of involvement with each other because they discuss and agree upon many of the details of their children's lives. This could include things such as bedtimes and study times, mobile phone and computer use, lunch box choices, and list could go on end...lessly. Cooperative Coparenting happens when parents agree on many things, they get along very well, they communicate often and constructively and they have very little conflict. When there is conflict they are able to resolve it relatively easily. If you are engaged in Cooperative Coparenting, congratulations. I suggest you do everything you can to keep it happening. You probably do not need to read any further unless you simply are interested in doing so. The second type of coparenting is Conflicted Coparenting. This type of coparenting involves a lot of ongoing conflict. Coparents argue over many things, do not get along, have a lot of trouble making decisions together and are not able to, or are rarely able to resolve conflict. This type of coparenting puts children at risk. Studies all around the world agree that ongoing conflict between parents puts children at risk of many problems including mental health issues. This is why parenting who do not fall into the category of Cooperative Coparenting need to learn the third way. This third way is Parallel Coparenting. Parallel Coparenting is something that needs to be learned; it is not instinctive. At its most basic, Parallel Coparenting means that parents only work together on making major decisions, and the general day to day parenting is left for each parent to take care of autonomously. This means that parents agree to disagree. They accept that they are different from each other and they approach things differently from each other. For the sake of not being Conflicted Coparents they allow for Parallel Coparenting to take place. There are two key pillars to Parallel Coparenting and these need to be understood by both parents. In this podcast I will talk you through these two pillars. I will explain how they go hand in hand with each other but can potential conflict with each other and what you need to do to make these two pillars strong enough to become the structure by which you create a coparenting system that allows your children to thrive and protects them from harmful conflict.
