Working Together to Find Solutions

Parents who are living apart often find themselves in need of outside help to resolve conflicts resulting from differences of opinion over the best interests of their children. This is especially true when an ugly divorce, a separation or an ongoing dispute creates resentment in an estranged relationship.

When parents are in conflict and faced with the task of learning how to work together for the best interests of their children, they may decide to call upon the services of a parenting coordinator.

The role of a parenting coordinator is to help families in conflict come to a successful resolution and resolve issues related either to the parenting of their children or to disputed family issues.

A judge may also legally mandate the appointment of a parenting coordinator to work with a family in order to resolve disputes, especially in high-conflict situations relating to a divorce, even when the parents would choose otherwise. A parenting coordinator may also be called upon to handle disputes between children and their parents.

A parenting coordinator is a neutral person to whom separated or divorced couples and parents can turn in order to help resolve disputes on matters relating to their children.
