Modifications To Reflect The New You

The ending of a relationship does not mean the end of a family. The big “D” does not absolve you from continuing your responsibility as a parent. In fact, it challenges your role even more. The best way to take care of your children after divorce is to continue to be there for them as much as you can. However, if you have a spouse who is determined to make it harder for you to see your children then seeking a Salt Lake City Modification Attorney is your best option to fight with the spouse fairy and without the drama.

Emy A. Cordano a Salt Lake City Modification Attorney knows that families age with time. Just because you divorced your spouse does not mean that you divorced your children. If you are a parent who is struggling while the other spouse has primary custody, here are some tips to help to stay connected to your children:

  1. Keep Talking to your kids: if you are in an unfortunate situation where your spouse restricts your access to your children, continue to find ways to speak with them. If you can’t call or face time then try sending a letter or a card. If you are legally restricted then we encourage you to speak with our modification attorney. At the time of your divorce, you may have been a different person with a different story. If your circumstances have changed so should your legal rights to see your children.
  2. Stay Active: If you have the legal ability to see your kids during any of their activities then go to their activities. Just because you are not the one to pick them up or drop them off does not mean that you are not responsible for being there. Showing your kids that are sticking around no matter what will work wonders on their self-esteem.
  3. Be respectful: You are divorcing your spouse, not your children. Try and be respectful of your ex’s feelings and behaviors. Be the stand-up person you want to be for your kids by showing them how to respect their parents. We know that this can be difficult especially when the ex is giving you a hard time. However, the more you can play nice the better evidence you will have when you decide that you need to modify your child support or child custody.
