Holiday Stress and Divorced Parenting
'Tis the season to be thankful, in another month to be jolly, and, if you're still not convinced, a whole new year right around the corner to try again if things don't work out for you through this year's holiday season! Holiday times for children of newly divorced parents are often the toughest time of year. They often have strong emotional attachments to days gone by when Mom, Dad, their brothers and sisters and they all cheerfully ate too much turkey and sang off-key holiday carols together. Remember that your joy in being away from what became an unbearable situation for you leading to a divorce may not have registered with your children, who are still in denial and are hurt, angry, and depressed.

Encourage Your Spouse and Build a Relationship That Lasts
It seems that in our society it has come to be expected that women will
get together and criticize their husbands and boyfriends and men will
get together and put down their wives and girlfriends. Everyone has to
have a few sarcastic comments to fling at their partner, especially
when there is an audience around to laugh at their expense. We tend to
tear down the very person we claim to love. I think it has become so
common in our society that sometimes people don’t even realize they are
doing it.

Yours, Mine, and Our Emotional Needs - The Marriage Makers and Breakers
A common theme in my articles, on my website, and in my coaching practice is on needs. For our purposes we define a need as a condition requiring relief. There are quite obviously many needs that you meet on a daily basis. Hunger may be one of the first things to come to mind when we think of needs, however, this is more of a physical need and we want to focus on our emotional needs!

I recommend that you pay all the letter-writing expenses of the women you write to, as it is significantly more expensive for them than it is for you as a percentage of their income.

Who is Pushing your Buttons?
How many times this week only, you had an encounter with someone who either pushed your buttons or you simply didn’t like, meaning, the chemistry wasn’t there?
It happens often. We hate the guts of this or that person, or we think that there is something wrong with them. Somehow we become absolutely critical and thus create an inaccurate and biased image of someone and nothing that person does is quite all right.
