Children: one of each - boy 7, girl 5
Default Re: Seperation-ONly Mommy


My children have had some difficulty with the transitions between my home and their mother's home. At one point my son would insist on returning to my house after only a few hours with his mother or vice versa. We entertained that and let my son choose where he wanted to go. After a while he seemed to feel better about having that control and was able to adjust to the schedule again. It's been about six months and the transitions are much, much more smooth. While it may not be what you want to do short-term, mixing up the calendar and giving your son more say in his time with either parent may help.
