Implementing the tips here can help you have a better divorce, which is good for you and your children. 

Don’t mention divorce until you’re ready to pull the trigger

Be sure to carefully consider if you are ready to move forward and file for divorce. Don’t threaten divorce when you are arguing and emotions are elevated. Only bring this up when you have thought about the decision and have a clear head. 

Don’t try to rush the legal process

Divorce is a process. Even in an amicable or collaborative divorce, it’s challenging. Be sure to connect with family and friends who can support you through the process. You should also remember that it is something that takes time. If you try to rush through and just “get it over with,” you may make mistakes that cost you down the road. 

Take steps to protect your children

Because of this, it’s necessary to work with your spouse to ensure the impact of your divorce is as small as possible. Ensure you don’t argue in front of them and only provide them with the information they need.
