Divorce Mediation Benefits Families With Children

Divorce mediation benefits families with children in many ways that a traditional divorce does not. Unlike a traditional divorce, mediation benefits families with children because the decision making power stays within the family, and is not decided by a court judge.

Divorce Mediation Has Many Benefits For Families With Children, Including More Control Over The Parenting Plan


Mediation allows you and your spouse to effectively and efficiently work through financial and legal issues, such as child custody, parenting time, child support, and the many other important issues that are part of a written parenting plan, without destroying the parental relationships that will continue long after the marriage has ended.
 
Divorce mediation is especially well-suited for couples with children because you understand your family best. No one else knows the needs of your family better than you and your spouse, and retaining the decision-making power is one of the most important aspects to consider when divorce occurs.
 
When children are part of the family, their wants and needs must be addressed by those that have their best interest at heart. Parents should be able to work together to come up with the best decisions possible for their family’s future regarding their children. Divorce is hard enough on children and families as it disrupts the normality of life, brings about major change, and forces families into futures they hadn’t considered.
 
Divorce mediation accommodates parents in giving them the time and space to be able to work together and communicate what they each feel is best for their family, and then work towards compromise and the best parenting plan for their children. No two families are alike, and the solutions that work best for one family may not work for another.
