Coparenting After a Romantic Relationship Ends

One of the most challenging contexts for coparenting is when the romantic relationship between the parents ends and the partners go there separate ways.  While the parents may rather not have to deal with each other any more, the reality is that they will need to if their mutual children are still young.  Research clearly shows that when coparents act civil towards one another and minimize their children's exposure to any of their post-relationship conflicts, children tend to do better.  The following resources provide moms and dads ideas about how they can work together to prioritize their children's needs and protect them from whatever friction exists between them.
