Diamonds and Pearls of WisdomThe DivorceWizards Blog, by Lynne DiamondDivorce ClosureThursday, May 10, 2007 Finding ClosureThere are a number of ways to bring closure to your divorce. For some people, closure of the relationship begins when the decision to get divorced is made. For others, closure comes when the papers are filed or when they are stamped as final by the Judge. For still others, ongoing counseling helps bring necessary closure - or chatting, consulting or processing with other close friends and professionals. Some folks like to perform ceremonies - light some sage and burn it in the house to rid the house of the spirit of former mates; rip up some photos or old clothes. Someone told me about two great web sites that address closure in divorce. The first, http://www.weddingringcoffins.com Yep - they sell coffins so one can give your wedding ring a full burial ceremony coffin and all. Had to laugh out loud on that one. Another, highly entrepreneurial person, must also be in L.A. offers divorce party planning. She has ready made invitations, decorations, games to play and so on. Divorce is just another reason to celebrate, I suppose. You can check out this offer at http://www.divorcepartyplanner.com We're curious, how did you bring closure to your divorce or break up? Parental Alienation Syndrome and Alec BaldwinSaturday, May 05, 2007 Parental Alientation Syndrome - when one parent tries to convince their children that the other parent is bad news.Sometime the Other Parent IS Bad News Sometimes the other parent is bad news. I had a case a few years ago where the Husband fell in love with his neighbor's wife. To be close to their respective families, Husband and Neighbor's wife rented a house right at the end of the block - so they could be close to their families. As it turned out, Neighbor's wife was already close with Husband's family since she was their teacher at the local public school. Got pregnant Then, as a show of even more closeness, Neighbor's wife got pregnant with Husband's child and - as expected - proudly carried that baby to school each and every day. Husband accused his wife - soon to be former wife - of parental alientation syndrome. Blaming her for the estrangement of his kids from him. Why would a parent not want their child to have the love and affection of the other parent? Why would someone be so filled with vengeance they would take it out on their child and try to turn them against their other parent? Maybe these parents should look within and see where their responsibility lies in the whole parental alienation paradigm, Alec! |
