Wednesday, May 31, 2023
“Nothing is perfect. Life is messy. Relationships are complex. Outcomes
are uncertain. People are irrational.”
Communicate Regularly and Respectfully
Regular communication is essential to building trust and a good relationship with your ex in the future. Make time for one-on-one conversations or check in with your ex from time to time. You don't have to be best friends after a divorce, but establishing mutual respect is a guarantee that any conflicts will be resolved amicably without making things worse.
Consistent communication lays the foundation for developing a healthy relationship after a divorce — even if it may be uncomfortable at first. This will allow you to openly discuss problems and issues related to shared responsibilities, as well as promote understanding and acceptance of each other's points of view. Therefore, use every opportunity, be it a face-to-face meeting or a telephone conversation, to establish a connection that will help strengthen a good relationship with your ex- spouse!
How to Handle Cultural Differences in a Long-Distance Relationship
“All knowledge of cultural reality, as may be seen, is always knowledge
from particular points of view.”
Max Weber
Learn more about each other's culture and traditions:
- Don't be afraid to ask your partner about their culture, beliefs, and
traditions. Not only will this help you understand them better, but it
will also demonstrate that you genuinely want to learn more about
them.
- Take time to research your partner's country of birth and residence,
native language, customs, and history. You can read books or articles
on these topics or watch movies/shows set in your partner's country.
- Share information about your own culture with your partner. This will
allow you to get to know each other better and find common ground
more easily.
If you make every effort to learn about each other's culture and traditions,
you will gain a better understanding of your partner's outlook on life,
habits, and preferences. This knowledge will help build mutual respect
and strengthen the bond between you, even if you are hundreds or even
thousands of miles apart.

How a California Judge Determines if a Parent is Unfit for Custody?
Wednesday, June 2, 2021
Divorce is a stressful and life-changing event. It impacts all the members of a family. Some people amicably end their marriage. However, some family law issues can present many challenges and may cause marriages to end very contentiously. The former couples are seen swearing and screaming their lungs out in court. Their interactions become especially heated in sensitive matters, like child custody. It is not uncommon to see them threatening each other that they are unfit for parenting and must give up custody rights completely. In truth, what your spouse believes about your parenting skills is meaningless compared to what the Los Angeles County family law court believes.
Judges are not keen on severing a relationship between a parent and the child. If your spouse seeks to have you declared ‘unfit’ for parenting, he or she must present undeniable evidence to support such claims. An empty accusation, no matter how loudly exclaimed, is not sufficient in a court of law.
5 Things Children Learn From Your Adult Relationships
Wednesday, May 19, 2021
Some parents may never realize it, but their kids are usually more observant than anybody else close to them. They don't seem to miss anything. Also, they can detect your emotional patterns, including the current mood you're in. If you have fights with your spouse, your children could easily see and sense the changes in your emotional well-being. They may also notice the smallest changes in relationships you have with your neighbors and friends.
Because of these examples, your children must learn positive and good values from your relationships, which will also impact how they'll handle theirs. Sometimes a typical pattern exists among family generations, and the descendants tend to follow such relationship patterns.
It's natural for your kids and teens to observe and follow your actions, down to the smallest details. Your stress management abilities are evident to them. All that information is stored in their memory for years to come. It's essential to set a positive example for your children even when you don't think they're paying attention.
