When you and your spouse decide to divorce, there are many things that you have to work out in order to separate your lives in a healthy way. The most important consideration is to find a way to parent your children as parenting partners, now living in different homes, rather than as spouses living in an intimate relationship. This transition is difficult for all involved as both parents and children adjust to not being able to see each other every day. Divorce mediation can help you and your divorcing spouse develop a parenting plan that will meet the unique needs of your family and put your children first. AMS Mediation of Burnsville, MN specializes in a wide variety of parenting support services that facilitate effective, cooperative and child-focused partnerships.
