We’re happy to report that another Collaborative Law Institute of Texas member is contributing to the Huffington Post, on its often-intriguing Divorce Channel. Linda Solomon, who is a Dallas-based, collaboratively-trained Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, as well as a former board member of our organization, co-wrote a recent article on the site addressing divorce and kids.
Specifically, the article details five tips for telling your kids that you and your spouse are getting a divorce. One of the most important pieces of advice here is not to shy away from using the word divorce. As they put it in the article, “You should definitely use the word ‘divorce.’ Many people are uncomfortable with that word, but you should begin by saying what is true: ‘We have decided to get a divorce.'” It’s one of many great pieces of advice in an article that’s work the click-through and the read.
