Tips for separated parents

If you've separated from your child's father and are wondering how to manage this new arrangement, here are some tips.

• Keep in mind that the well-being of your little one always comes before the tensions that may exist with your former partner.
• Never put your son or daughter in the role of referee between their separated parents.
• Don't talk negatively about Dad or ask your child to watch him or her in a joint custody arrangement.
• Find a common ground with your ex to educate your child according to the same rules and to not disrupt their daily life.
