I thought it would be useful to start a discussion of useful divorce books.
I liked Your Healthy Divorce Journey by Erica Ellis. It was calming a reassuring. It helped me come up with ways to deal with conflict that didn't make the conflict worse. It also talked about divorce as a journey. She emphasized that how you feel on day 1 isn't how you'll feel on day 365, but how you and your spouse behave in the early days can have a negative or positive impact on your happiness and the happiness of your kids. Really good book. |

| Something that isn't all reassurance and tells you how to actually prepare and deal with it when your children don't handle it well. Some kids are "resilient" (hate that cliche), others are not and can be really difficult. |
