Is it really important to talk to your children when they are at the other parent's house? And what about the parent who won't share important information with you about the children? Do you give in to the other parent's antics or should you hold your ground?

Diane and Rick look at a conflict that on the surface might seem easy to resolve for the Non-Impossible parent. But upon further exploration, they unpack long-lasting consequences to giving in to a child's request to stay away from school events and activities. They also discuss a new segment that will be added to the show to look at problematic parenting plan language. If you have a problematic paragraph in your parenting plan that you would like the hosts to review, email it to 1234Dilemma@gmail.com.
