This two-part (4 hour total) webinar series will provide family law professionals (lawyers, judges, mediators, family conflict resolution specialists, and mental health providers) with an overview of the relevant issues in child development and the effects of separation and divorce on children and parents with a focus on helping families craft parenting plans that promote a stable and consistent environment for children and shield them from the harmful effects of exposure to parental conflict.
Parenting styles, parental capacity, parent mental illness, and alienating behaviors will also be covered highlighting the implications for children and adolescents. A brief review of the social science research on interventions that help parents and families stabilize after divorce will also be included.
