Parents Forever | Divorce Therapy
in Brainerd/Baxter, MN

 

Nystrom & Associates, Ltd. (NAL) offers Parents Forever educational program in our Brainerd/Baxter, MN office. Parents Forever was developed by the University of Minnesota Extension, based on research about the effects of divorce on children.  Minnesota Statute 518.157 requires judges to court order parents with contested custody and visitation issues into an approved parent education program. Parents Forever is an approved program meeting all standards set by the statute.

Children who experience family disruption often live with parental conflict before, during, and after the divorce.  In addition, children are likely to experience emotional and behavioral problems, academic struggles, and trouble with the law. When parents attend the complete Parents Forever class series, they learn valuable skills and tools that will help reduce the effects of divorce on children and themselves. They will learn how to:

  • Eliminate parental conflict in front of the child.
  • Keep the child out of the middle of parent issues.
  • Provide access to both parents
  • Put the best interest of the child first.
  • Make adjustments in their finances to account for the financial changes that divorce brings.
  • Work with the divorce legal process rather than against it.
