According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the Greek Chorus would “comment on the moral issue that is raised by the dramatic action or to express an emotion appropriate to each stage of the … [Read more...] about The Greek Chorus of Divorce

Why Is a Post-Divorce Relationship Necessary?

November 19, 2020 By Family Peacemaker Staff

Relationship after divorce

The decision to end a marriage is rarely, if ever, an easy one.  When the decision is finally made, it often feels like the only option is to permanently cut all ties with your ex-spouse.  And although this might be an option for couples without children, it often is not possible for couples with minor or adult children.  The simple fact is, dissolving the marriage does not dissolve … [Read more...] about Why Is a Post-Divorce Relationship Necessary?

Parents who divorce face the reality that two homes will be trying to meet budgets on the same income that once supported just one.

What Does It Mean to Be A Family Peacemaker?

June 24, 2020 By Bart Carey

What Does It Mean to Be A Family Peacemaker?

Visiting with my father-in-law recently, our conversation turned to a recollection from my litigation past. Time and resources are always at a premium in the courtroom, and judges can lose patience with litigants whom they perceive as unreasonable or wasting the court’s time. This couple on this day, 12 – 15 years ago, rang that bell. They were standing in front of the court using their time to … [Read more...] about What Does It Mean to Be A Family Peacemaker?

Dealing with the Fear in a Divorce

June 9, 2020 By Bart Carey

Dealing with the Fear in a Divorce

Most of the emotions that we see during the course of the breakdown of a marriage and the divorce process boil down to fear. I do not say that from my own expertise but from what I have heard over and over again from my colleagues in the mental health profession.
