Summary: This really helped my kids (and me and my ex too)!
Review: I am a divorced mom and have two kids. My ex and I had a terrible time communicating after the divorce and I could tell that my kids were really suffering as a result. I decided to buy this kit and things have improved dramatically. First of all, when the item arrived, my daughter's eyes lit up when she saw the calendar and the stickers. She ran off to her room to put it together and raced out when she was finished to show me the schedule she has with me and my ex. It was one of the first times since the divorce that I had really seen her happy, so I felt like this product had shined some light into her life again. Then I decided to start using the Mom and Dad Pad to communicate with my ex. I was skeptical at first that it would make any difference, but it did. I can say, without a doubt, it helped more than all the therapy sessions we had that we spent a small fortune on. It's an easy thing to use. It just seemed to help us be more civil to each other. The books have been great too.

Summary: Best thing to buy if you're getting divorced and have kids
Review: If you are getting divorced and have kids or you know someone going through a divorce, this is one of the best products on the market. Do yourself a favor and buy it! There are lots of books for people and kids dealing with divorces, but there are very few products which actually help people cope with divorces. This kit contains a calendar plus stickers (mom stickers, dad stickers, holidays, etc.)so you and your kids can actually see their schedules. It's an incredibly helpful tool that gives kids structure, something they desparately need when they're getting divorced. The kit also contains a great communication pad for parents---an easy-to-use fill-in-the-blank form that makes writing to an ex a much easier task. And it makes an automatic copy for your files. Then there are two books, one for parents, and one for kids, that help you with LOTS of issues commonly dealt with in divorces. The nice thing is that there's lots of information packed into a small book, but it's not overwhelming.
