Our family law team at Fisher Jones Greenwood are proud to support Resolution’s Good Divorce Week 2021. The aim of this week is to begin a national conversation about how parents can embrace a child-focused approach to separation.
What is Good Divorce Week 2021?
It aims to encourage a ‘good divorce’. This means acknowledging the many different ways to manage the process of a divorce. We understand that the divorce process can be a stressful, highly emotional and a difficult process for anyone to have to go through. The aim of a ‘good divorce’ is to try to reduce conflict between parents and any negative impact people may suffer from a divorce. It also aims to make the process as amicable as possible.
The importance of Good Divorce Week 2021
This year the aim is to promote a child-focused approach to a divorce. The impact a divorce can have on children is significant, and many children find themselves stuck in the middle. By promoting a child-focused approach to divorce, it raises awareness of the need for parents to work together to support their children which will not only benefit the children, but also the parents.
Parenting through a separation is difficult, which is why, for this week only, Resolution have allowed access to a free guide to parents in the aim of helping them achieve a constructive approach through their divorce by putting their children first.
