Every parent wants to put their children’s interests front and centre during a divorce or separation but all too often they don’t know where to turn for help. That’s why Resolution created the Parenting Through Separation Guide and made it the focus of Good Divorce Week 2021 (29 Nov - 3 Dec). Resolution is a membership association of family justice professionals committed to a Code of Practice that promotes a constructive approach to family issues and considers the needs of the whole family, in particular the best interests of children. Resolution member, Sarah Trundley from Seymours Solicitors, is offering the guide for free to local families who are divorcing or separating At Seymours Solicitors, we know that the pandemic has put huge pressure on families and even more so on those who are separating. Every parent wants to put their children’s interests front and centre, but all too often they don’t know where to turn for help and aren’t given the support they need in order to do this. It’s important for parents to have access to good, authoritative and professional advice that helps them to parent responsibly through their separation. We hope all local separating parents will use the Parenting Through Separation Guide, to help them find a better way forward for them, and for their children. The free guide is available to any parent seeking help during their separation. It contains advice about how to co-parent with a former partner, background on the common disputes that arise between separating parents, and how to talk to children about the painful topic of divorce or separation, plus much more. Juliet Harvey, national chair of Resolution, said: “I’m really pleased to have Seymour’s support during Good Divorce Week. Resolution members like them do really important work in their community to help families separate in a constructive and amicable way. The more families who know about and use the free Parenting Through Separation Guide, the better equipped they will be to navigate the challenges divorce and separation brings, particularly when it comes to putting children first.”
