Some divorces are going to get messy. The two partners are not able to agree on anything and it turns into a big fight that results in hours where you spend it in court. This can get ugly and many people will find that it runs up the divorce bills and leaves both of them miserable and broke. This is not the best case for any couple when they are going through a divorce and is not a good idea. If possible, you and your ex need to consider whether mediation is much better.

Mediation is going to be an important part of the puzzle for most couples when they go through a divorce. Mediation is going to allow both parties to come together and make the decisions for themselves, rather than having the court make the decisions and take it out of their hands. When it comes to some of your mutual priorities, such as with the kids, nobody knows what to do better than the parents and mediation allows you to make these decisions without the court.

For the interest of the kids, the mom and dad should make the decisions together. They know the kids the best and can ensure that they come up with a solution that works for the kids and the schedule that is in place. Mediation can do this much better than you would see with going to court and fighting about it. No matter how nice the judge is during your court time, they will not know your kid as well as you do, so both parents coming together makes more sense.

The parenting may still be difficult when you divorce, so coming up with a plan that you can both deal with and thinking about all of the problems that could come up along the way is critical to ensuring that you can give the kids the very best along the way. This will make sure that you and your spouse are able to give the kids the very best, even when going through a divorce.
