Published: Sept. 1, 2020, 4 a.m.

Everything about divorce is hard. Court proceedings, mediation, and yes, co-parenting. In fact, nothing is more important than the safety and love for your children. When a co-parenting relationship turns sour or worse, parental alienation occurs, your children experience an emotional cutoff from one (or both) parents. 

This week, we are talking about conscious co-parenting and attachment-based parental alienation with Dorcy Pruter. Dorcy is recognized as one of America’s Top Reunification Specialists, a “Conscious Co-Parenting Coach," who teaches divorcing parents struggling with Attachment-Based Parental Alienation how to reunite with their alienated children and resurface the bond that was obstructed. 

Parents oftentimes are well intended, and most times our actions manifest from fear and love. It’s a fine line to maneuver. Dorcy helps us to understand how parental alienation shows up and what we can do about it. She also provides some amazing insight about essential skills our children should know in order to cope and move through life as a child of parents living apart.
