- Fix things if they’re broken.
Make plans. Don't give up. Schedule counseling. Take a parenting
class. Have some fun.
- Make another effort to communicate
with the other parent. Keep trying. Learn to communicate without
"pushing buttons".
- Apologize to your children if you
know you have hurt them with your behavior or words. Keep them out
of the middle. They will love you for it.
- Redirect unresolved anger by finding
appropriate resources. You will feel better, and deserve it. So
do your kids.
- Find constructive alternatives
for problem-solving. Take charge. Surprise yourself!
- Forgive your former partner, and
to forgive yourself. Someone wise once said, "Forgiveness is
a gift you give to yourself."
