Communications Guidance with Ex-Spouse for Blended Family


Are experience difficulties talking with your ex-spouse about your kids? Does it end up into an argument each time you talk about it? Here are few suggestions for who, what, where, when and how to communicate with your ex-spouse effectively.

Who
Your current spouse and mate should always have primary communication and discuss about your spouse first.

What
The only thing you need to consider why you talk or communicate with your ex-spouse is because of the children and none other.

When
Speak with your ex-spouse if it is urgent related such as illness or trauma, but needs to have focus while talking with one another or should we say in the state of mind.

Where
There is no need for a meet ups when you need to talk with your ex-spouse, but in some cases, you can select a place where both of you have the neutral side where discussion can be done effectively.

How
Talking with your ex-spouse regarding the kids is acceptable, however consider emails or phone first before any other method if it is effective.

Why
You need to maintain a working relationship with your ex-spouse with some limitations and only for the purpose of cases involving the kids.

Being a parent is tough in a blended family but if you focus your mind and stay on the right track, it will be a lot easier. Just keep in mind that you always do the right thing for the kids.
