If you're going through a divorce, you may have to deal with a custody battle. Emotions can run high on all ends, so try to find ways to manage healthy communication between your spouse, your child, and child custody lawyers. Here are ways to make healthy communication a priority while dealing with a child custody battle.
According to Thumbtack, the fee for maintaining child custody lawyers is about $250 hourly. Since you're paying for your lawyer's time, utilize their expertise to provide emotional support and advice. After all, even if your case is clear cut, expect to have emotional upheavals that your custody lawyer will understand, as they’ve seen this before. They can provide an unbiased and experienced ear to talk to who understands the ups and downs of child custody issues.
Don't forget your loved ones are there for you. Whether it's your parents, cousins, best friends, neighbors, or friends in another country, don't be afraid to jump on a Skype call, arrange a brunch, or invite people over for movie night, so you can have a comforting ear to confide in. While you're trying to be strong for your child, you'll need other people in your circle who you can be vulnerable with.
If you're not ready to go to the therapist's office yet, take advantage of telecommuting health services. You can make an appointment with a psychiatrist or schedule yourself for group therapy with other people going through a divorce and child custody dispute. Consider family counseling for you and your children. Depending on your relationship with your estranged spouse, maybe you can all go to family counseling together for the sake of the child.
One of the best pieces of advice your child custody lawyers want you to know is to avoid talking about your spouse in front of the child. Regardless of how you may feel about your estranged or former spouse, they’re still your child's other parent. It's always best to keep the children as neutral as possible.
Child custody lawyers see knockdown and drawn-out battles between parents. By being mindful of how you can maintain healthy communication and emotional stability, you can avoid this additional stress and do what's best for the child.
