What are some ways to remain civil with an ex for the sake of your children?
Cupid’s Advice:
When you split up a marriage and have children, it is essential to stay civil for the children’s sake. It is not great if your children think that mommy and daddy hate one another and don’t like to talk. Although it may not be easy to remain civil with your ex, it’s possible. Cupid has some more advice:
1. Dinners:Â If you want to remain civil with your ex for the sake of your children, have occasional dinners at either you or your partner’s home. It will show your children that their parents can still talk together even if they aren’t living with one another. For the adults, do not fight at dinner. It will do the complete opposite of what you’re trying to show your children.
2. Parties:Â Most children have parties or small family dinners for their birthdays, communions, graduations. Be apart of these festivities, you and your ex. Organize them together, plan them together, go to them together. Again, it will show your kids how you two can handle being around one another.
3. School events:Â Are your children involved in activities at school? Do they play band? Or are apart of the school musical? If they are, or any other activity — go to them. It will show your kids that you still want to be apart of their life. Even though you aren’t entirely in their life at the moment.
