How do you??

Question

How do you talk about co-parenting after a break-up? And how does it work.? ( break-up was horrible.) who should talk first or what?? Daughter is with me btw.  I would like dad in her life but… I don’t know where or how to deal with the feelings or emotions or what? And what terms should I set up for him. Tell me ur recommendations or experiences or what?

Answer

I haven't personally gone through this situation but if the breakup was bad then i think its best to start with a lawyer. Then its not up to you or him to set the terms.

Answer

I would start by sending a message saying you would like to discuss options for how he could remain in his child’s life. I would acknowledge that things ended badly but that you understand the importance of putting your child and what’s best for them above any situation between the two of you. I would be very clear and direct. It’s not in the best interest of you, him, or your child to get lawyers involved unless things cannot be resolved civilly. Lawyers are expensive, and custody plans can be rigid. You want to save that money and be in a position to work together in the event that a plan needs to change. You want to both be on the same team, your child’s team.
