Co-Parent Dilemmas — Education
Co-Parent Dilemmas

There are at least two sides to every conflict, and when it’s between divorced or separated parents, sparks can fly. In each episode, co-parenting experts Diane Dierks and Rick Voyles answer listener questions and talk about the benefits and risks of letting go vs. holding on to the conflict in a variety of complex topics facing co-parents today. Do you hold on for the sake of the children or let go for the same reason? Episodes are released every Sunday at noon. Listeners can email diane@cpdilemmas.com and pose a question/dilemma that may be answered on an upcoming episode. What do you do when the other parent won’t be flexible with the parenting schedule? How do you respond to a co-parent who is constantly blowing up your phone with texts? Is it really important to talk to your children when they are at the other parent’s house? And what about the parent who won’t share important information with you about the children? Do you give in to the other parent’s antics or should you hold your ground? Get answers to these questions and more on Co-Parent Dilemmas, wherever you get your podcasts.

Diane and Rick stand on several principles as they advise co-parents about conflict and communication. On this bonus episode, they discuss the meaning of the terms "co-parent" and "co-parenting,." Are they nouns or verbs? Also, what does it mean to set healthy boundaries with a co-parent (not too rigid and not too loose)? Finally, they discuss their newly-coined term, "NON-Impossible" co-parents, and that no one is let off the hook when it comes to two-way communication. Saying you have an impossible parent doesn't give you a right to be impossible yourself!

Kids can leave parents speechless with their bizarre statements or tough questions about the other parent. Diane and Rick respond to Jessica from Atlanta and discuss how to take off the wounded spouse hat and put on the parenting one before talking to children. Also discussed is the WAC response (Worried, Afraid or Concerned) as a way to find out how a child feels or thinks about a situation, rather than jumping to conclusions and making it about the co-parent relationship instead of your child's needs.

Angela from Louisville is struggling to help her child experience social events, like birthday parties, because her co-parent refuses to let him do "kid" things on his weekends. This is a common problem many co-parents face as they desire for their children to be like other kids who can experience a range of activities and social experiences without being told, "Sorry, but that's happening on dad's (or mom's) weekend." Diane & Rick talk about the importance of understanding parenting time with children as your "turn" to be a responsible parent, not your "time" to dominate the child's life.

Diane & Rick help John in Chicago tackle the tough question of how much is enough when it comes to being flexible with your co-parent.
