The Christmas season is about creating memories and spending quality time with the ones you love. However, this festive season can quickly become a nightmare for newly divorced or separated couples and their families. Navigating the holidays post-divorce is hard, especially when young children are involved. Which home will the children wake up in on Christmas morning? Whose house will Santa visit? Answering these questions is not always straightforward.
The important thing to remember this Christmas season is that your child’s well-being should be a priority: Healthy co-parenting and compromise around this time of year are essential to ensuring your child’s happiness. Creating a schedule that works for you and the other parent is crucial, ensuring that they spend time with each other and enjoy the holiday without feeling overwhelmed.
It’s imperative to maintain open lines of communication and focus on working together to ensure your child’s Christmas is as magical as before. In prioritizing your child’s well-being, you are building a strong foundation that will benefit them for years to come.
