The holidays should be a joyous time, though the season can be challenging if you share parenting time with your child with their other parent. It is important to focus on healthy co-parenting techniques to ensure that your child β and you β enjoy your holidays as much as possible.
Plan Ahead
Do you have a specific family gathering you want your child to attend? Does your ex want to take your child on a short trip during winter break? There can be many factors that go into designing a shared custody schedule over the holiday break, so it is critical to plan far in advance. Make a schedule based on each parentβs priorities and then stick to that schedule. If there are disputes, refer to your parenting plan.
Make New Traditions
When you split time with your child, you likely will not be able to honor all of the past traditions you built for the holidays you observe. Now is the time to make new traditions, and start building new memories as parents who are no longer together. This can help you cherish every moment and not resent the times you are not with your child.
Keep Open Lines of Communication
The holidays can be unpredictable, and plans can change at a momentβs notice. If someone is going to be late or needs to slightly adjust the schedule, always be willing to openly discuss the matter with your ex. Being flexible and openly communicating can keep spirits high instead of resulting in unnecessary conflict.
