Now that may not be what you want to hear because what it…

Divorcing families can employ alternative dispute resolution techniques to limit the damage that divorce may cause. By choosing alternative dispute resolutions, couples can minimize the impact that divorce has on their children and their…

Take a look at the diagram below:
The image above depicts something you see frequently in divorce—individuals whose personal selves are crowded out by that which surrounds them.
