Start thinking about college now—not later.
AND START TALKING ABOUT NOW—not later.
One of the biggest mistakes parents make is promising a future they haven’t fully planned for. Telling your child they can go anywhere, only to walk that back later, creates confusion, pressure, and disappointment.

Talk about:
• what’s financially realistic
• what contributions look like
• what expectations come with support
Honesty doesn’t limit your child—it equips them.
It teaches planning. It builds resilience. It creates alignment instead of conflict.

Clarity today prevents conflict tomorrow.

Anxiety isn’t “bad” in a custody evaluation — it’s human.
But what matters is how it shows up.
Evaluators aren’t judging whether you feel anxious. They’re looking at whether that anxiety:
interferes with your decision-making
impacts your child
escalates conflict with the other parent
Unmanaged anxiety can be misread as instability, overcontrol, or inability to co-parent — even when your intentions are protective.
The key isn’t perfection. It’s awareness and containment.
When a parent can say, “I get anxious in high-conflict situations, and here’s how I manage it,” it shifts everything.
Because anxiety, when regulated, doesn’t weaken your case — it shows insight.
And insight is what evaluators are really looking for.

Having the time (and energy) to read them all.
But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some worth a try.

The truth is—no single book is going to magically fix everything. But getting new ideas, hearing different perspectives, and understanding various schools of thought can expand both your mindset and your parenting toolkit.

And sometimes, the biggest gift a book gives you is this: the reminder that you’re not alone. So many of these pages validate what you’re going through and offer a little hope when you need it most.

Take what works. Leave what doesn’t. Read what you can.
And don’t worry—we’ll keep the recommendations coming.

So much of parenting is spent correcting… but what if we flipped the script?
Notice the good stuff:
Acknowledge when the sharing without being asked
Point out when they are helpful
Notice when they are using kind words

When we call out positive behavior, we don’t just reward it—we grow it.
Catch them being good. Say it out loud. Watch what happens

If you’re raising kids in the age of smartphones and social media, Smartphone Nation by Kaitlyn Regehr is a must-read 📚📱

It offers a thoughtful look at how constant connectivity is shaping how kids think, feel, and interact with the world.

And this isn’t just for two-home families—but for divorced or separated parents, the stakes are even higher.

Different rules. Different comfort levels. Different understanding of tech.
One parent says yes to the device, the other says no.
One uses it for “safety,” the other feels surveilled.

These gaps don’t just create tension between parents—they can divide kids.
If you want to reduce conflict (and avoid bigger issues down the road), alignment is key.

Understand the digital world.
Create a shared plan.
Set common expectations.
Need help getting there? Dear Co-Parent can help you build that plan.
In the meantime, start with this book.

“Your ex says, ‘I’ve done some self-reflection.’

Planning ahead is a must. Making long Seders and big family meals is a flex. Here are some major finds to make you Seder more meaningful, less stressful and fun!

Dear Coparent few ways to make your Passover more meaningful—and a lot less stressful:

Brené Brown nailed it, I mean doesn’t she always? Always get inspired by what she has to say.

So listen up!
“Who we are and how we engage with the world are much stronger predictors of how our children will do than what we know about parenting.”
Translation: it’s not about how many parenting books you’ve read.
It’s about how you show up.
Kids don’t follow advice.
They follow examples.
