How much are you willing to spend?
The costs of divorce include many things other than money and property. Although litigation may be extremely taxing financially, it frequently has far greater emotional consequences. Choosing collaborative divorce, instead of litigation, may result in the following happy results:
1. To look in your child’s eyes, knowing that you ended their most important relationship with dignity, respect, and integrity.
2. To provide a respectful, non abusive atmosphere for your children’s growing up years.
3. To have emotional support as, together, you co-parent your children, and share common goals for the future of your family.
4. To use funds for college for your child, rather than for therapy due to the emotional scarring caused by the divorce.
5. To eliminate the need for your child to feel it necessary to take care of you emotionally following the divorce.
6. To avoid the threat of continually going back to court.
7. To successfully avoid dragging your ex into your next relationship.
8. To enjoy celebrating your child’s wedding together.
9. To learn to support and act from your highest self and not your lowest self.
What is it worth to not have to continually obsess on the unsatisfactory experiences that occurred in your divorce?
What is it worth to feel that the decisions involved in ending your marriage were not yours?
What is it worth to live your life from love and not hate?
