The Real Talk Handbook to Separation with Kids
"Every Wednesday my son would show up confused and stressed…"
Real stories from real parents who've navigated this journey. No sugar-coating. No false promises. Just honest guidance when you need it most.
You're not just separating, you're rewriting your child's life story.
Most guides are written by lawyers or therapists. This one's written by a parent who spent $15,000 trying to "do it right", and still got blindsided.
This isn’t theory. It’s the emotional and practical support I wish I had before the stress of courtrooms, mediation, or mistakes.
