It can be easy to give in when a child starts crying. You want to protect your child from the hurt you assume they are experiencing at the other parent’s home. What if that isn’t the case? What if giving in isn’t the best option for the child’s well-being? 

In this episode, Justin Sisemore and Andrea Jones focus on children after divorce, the emotional spectrum they go through as they age and the assumptions parents make about the wants and needs, especially with the first child. They share their experiences with children of different age groups and how parents can protect themselves from losing visitation.

Justin and Andrea discuss:

  • Why young children cry when leaving the primary parent and why parents should avoid giving in to the emotions  
  • The importance of reinforcing the court rules of visitation on the children while showing the children they are loved
  • The legal troubles of avoiding visitation and enforcing different rules
  • How to differentiate the needs of the child from the wants of the parents
  • And more!
