I totally agree with your savvy advice. Wise parents will look for every opportunity to open the door to discussing tough topics in a listening-focused, non-judgmental way. This will help them get more insight into their child's perspectives and help them be a better resource for their child. I really appreciate your feedback and encourage you to keep up the great insights! Thanks for your comment, Carolyn. I totally agree with your savvy advice.

As usual, great post. The only thing I would add is for parents to actively be opening these conversations as well. Often children don't work up the courage or even recognize their need to talk through an issue. It is up to divorced parents to regularly engage in these conversations with their children and broach the tough topics for them, proving that they are indeed the appropriate person for their child to talk to.
