According to the Stepfamily Association of America, 60 percent of all families are breaking up, and custody and visitation issues loom large in the lives of many parents. Isolina Ricci's Mom's House, Dad's House guides separated, divorced, and remarried parents through the hassles and confusions of setting up a strong, working relationship with the ex-spouse in order to make two loving homes for the kids. This expanded and revised edition (the book was originally published in 1980) includes emotional and legal tools, as well as many reference materials and resources. As one parent said of the first edition, "This book is my friend."
The groundbreaking classic, now revised, updated and expanded, covers the legal, financial and emotional realities of creating two happy and stable homes for children in the often difficult and confusing aftermath of a divorce.

Start the divorce off right if that is possible. Especially when comes to the kids. As a man who has custody of OUR child I respect and appreciate this books insights. You see that this is the norm for different situations so one can watch for it and react appropriately. If you cant be friend's then you as matter as well be "corporate friends" and try to make things work for your kids sake. You would'nt be rude or demeaning to another co-worker so dont treat your ex-spouse that way either. Good ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Unnecessary for divorced parents who already get along
My five-year-old daughter's dad and I have joint custody and joint placement. Therefore, my daughter travels between our houses (about 8 blocks apart) every few days. I was hoping this book would help her dad and I make the most of our daughter's situation, but it seems to focus on parents who do not get along. Perhaps, because my daughter does not remember ever having two parents in the same home, this book isn't as relevant to her as it may be for some. The book seemed to focus on picking up ...
