Setting limits with children through divorce

​Children need structure, even as their parents are divorcing. Many parents feel that they can’t discipline their children because they’re dealing with so much emotionally. But by having clear, defined limitations for your children, it will help your children feel safe and secure which they need, particularly when they’re parents are divorcing.
 
While maintaining clear rules and limits is important, it’s also important for parents to choose their battles. Now is not the time to be extremely strict or add new rules. Start with one or two of your most critical rules and let your children know what they are. Make sure that they’re used to them before adding more. Give your children about 2 weeks to get used to a new rule before adding another one.
 
It’s also important to involve children in determining what the rules are. Let them make some of the rules themselves and try to come up with some together. You can even add some fun ones like, “Anyone who’s sad gets to choose what’s for dessert.” Post the rules somewhere in your home where everyone can see them. This enables everyone to be on the same page and avoids miscommunication.
 
Too many parents focus on negativity and punishment. If you recognize appropriate behavior and focus on the positive, your children will respond better. Even if there is only one thing that your child does that’s positive, point that out. Children gain so much more from positive reinforcement than negative attention.
 
Remember to work with your children’s other parent and not against them. You can have different parenting styles as long as you respect each other’s differences. Children don’t need you to be aligned on everything but they do need you to both message them that tell they must respect the other parent. Children do best when both parents are involved and they have a good working relationship with each other. You don’t have to be best friends with your children’s other parent, you just need to work effectively with each other.
 
Raising children isn’t easy and when the family is going through divorce, that creates even more complications. However, if you maintain structure for your children, choose your battles, focus on the positive and have a good working relationship with your children’s other parent, you are well on your way to having happy and healthy children.

What Clients Are Saying:
​

"I happened to come upon Thriving Through Divorce on Facebook. I can genuinely state that it was one of the best decisions that I have made in this entire process. The support, guidance, caring, information - both tactical and emotional was extremely helpful. This was not some theoretical, book/psychology focused approach - It is real life and real impact! I could expand on this for quite a bit more, but suffice to say that I was more than thankful for having happened to find Jill and her program and the group has been an amazing blessing. Thank you Jill on behalf of all of us."

S.Y. Denver, CO

"I spoke with Jill when my marriage first broke down.  Her intelligent and compassionate guidance helped me make positive choices for myself and my children during the divorce process.  Now, I’m on the other side, living my new chapter.  Her book is a valuable tool in processing feelings, approaching challenges, and setting goals for the future.  Thank you, Jill!"
 
Patti S. New Jersey

"I am truly grateful for participating in the "Thriving Through Divorce Group Coaching Program" developed by Jill. It was refreshing to know that divorce will not define who I am. This program provided great tools to aide in managing and working through the emotions that come up during the divorce process. Jill's knowledge and personal experience with divorce helped me to learn what common mistakes to avoid during the divorce process. It was a breath of fresh air to know what I wasn't the only person going through such a major life event."

"I spoke to Jill over six months ago and now I'm back to reflect. I'm stronger and in a better place in my life. Jill helped springboard me to where I am today and I'm grateful for her help."
