Hi I am doing some research into what could be provided to help separated dads and improve the parenting relationship .
Many dads feel marginalised and powerless and poor communciation and paretning realionships cam have a detrimental affect on the children . Or maybe this is nto your experience ?
Could any dad answer a few quick questions for me ?
Is communciation an issue between you and your ex ?
What ideas do you have that could improve that ?
Would you consider getting help ? if so which of these( if any) would interest you
(1) a course where your ex was not present and you could meet face to face with other parents ( mums and dads) to share and learn skills to improve communciation and reduce conflict
( 2) a meeting with your ex with a trained facilitator to discuss your parenting relationship and share ideas on how you improve it and work together to get it right for your children
have you any other ideas of services that could be offered that would be of interest to you ?
many thanks
