Podcasts about divorce and children

On this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, host Karen McMahon welcomes retired Superior Court Judge Anthony J. Mohr for a powerful conversation about the long-term impact of divorce on children. Drawing from his personal experience growing up with two very different dads—his successful, conservative stepfather and his charismatic, unpredictable Hollywood actor father—Anthony offers a unique perspective on what it's like for kids to live in two homes after divorce. Now an author of the memoir Every Other Weekend, Anthony shares how his childhood shaped his identity and ultimately influenced his nearly 30-year career on the bench. This episode explores the emotional challenges children face navigating dual households and highlights how resilience, awareness, and intentional parenting can shape a more stable future for kids of divorce.

Should couples stay together for the sake of the children?

David and Rachel discuss common misconceptions about divorce recovery after the age of 40. They emphasize that finding love again is possible at any age and that companionship can be found in various ways. They also debunk the belief that the grief from divorce will last forever and highlight the importance of healing and moving forward. The hosts address the concern that children will never accept a divorce, explaining that while it may be a difficult adjustment, children can adapt to new family dynamics. They also challenge the notion that financial stability is unattainable after divorce, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing happiness over financial concerns. David and Rachel caution against quickly jumping into dating as a solution, as it can lead to further complications. They stress the importance of taking time for oneself and seeking professional help and support during the divorce process. Lastly, they remind listeners that they are not alone in their experiences and encourage connecting with others who have gone through divorce for motivation and advice. Key Takeaways: Love and companionship can be found at any age after divorce. The grief from divorce will not last forever; healing is possible. Children can adapt to new family dynamics after divorce. Financial stability is attainable after divorce with proper planning and prioritization. Jumping into dating quickly after divorce can lead to further complications. Taking time for oneself and seeking support is crucial during the divorce process.

You got to work on yourself." "You're never too old. And love is different. Older love is way different." "If you don't take care of yourself, you can't take care of the other people around you." "You shouldn't have to do it alone. There is a lot of free help, too." "Nobody understands what I'm going through. Millions share this experience.

Sharing common ground and having a game plan to discuss important child related coparenting issues is vital to assisting children to best deal with divorce.

This week licensed clinical and forensic psychologist, Dr Malissa Tigges joins Michelle Dempsey-Multack to discuss what is best for children when it comes to divorce. Dr Malissa explains that it is proven that children thrive in a household where they receive love and support from both parents, but when there is constant tension and no model of love it can have negative impacts on them.

A butter knife is intended to spread butter. It's not supposed to be used as a screwdriver, a pry bar, or for any other purpose you might find for it. Sure, it might work OK at the moment. But the knife will come back to the kitchen bent, beaten, and battered. It will probably never be used to spread butter again. God created each of us for a purpose. He created marriage for a purpose. As the world warps and shifts that purpose, it might seem like everything is working out just fine. But at the end of the day, there's an emptiness and a longing for something more. Today, Pastor Mark encourages you to look in the Bible to find the truth.

Jesus is counter-cultural. He shifts the status quo and rocks the boat wherever he goes. Today, Pastor Mark looks at Jesus' teaching about marriage and divorce. Jesus' words sparked controversy when they were spoken, and they are especially controversial now. The world wants you to be who you were born to be. That sounds like a nice message, to just be your natural self. The problem is that your natural self is sinful and not right with God. It's natural to do things that aren't pleasing to God! Today, Jesus calls us to something greater. He calls us out of the easy, sinful life into a life transformed by his power.

It's easy to expect more from others than you do from yourself. Whether it's your kids, employees, or even just your friends, it's easy to demand perfection while allowing plenty of grace for yourself and all your mistakes. But thankfully, as Pastor Mark shows us today, God isn't like that. God tells his followers that they have to lay their life down for others. Following Jesus requires a great sacrifice, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. But because God is a loving father and a gracious king, he was the first to live out that example. Even before he hung on the cross, he was putting the needs of others above his own.

Have you ever had a prayer answered? Did anyone notice? Have you ever come close to feeling like it's “thanks to you” that it happened? It's a feeling that needs to be fought! In today's message, Pastor Mike reminds us that God's miracles are for His Glory! Too many quote-unquote “Christian” organizations today, and even throughout history; have tried to give the credit for these miracles to the pastors and priests. Not on the actual performer of the miracles; God. If you're asking God to perform miracles in order to make yourself look better, then something's very wrong!

One of the biggest fears many have when considering the divorce option, is how will it effect the children. Of course this is a fear, there can be a lot of impacts that this brings to the child's life. Yet we don't want to underestimate the resources that are available to help children navigate this as well as not to underestimate the children themselves. Everyone has a different experience and different story yet, sometimes it can be helpful to hear from the mouth of one who was impacted. Today we have a special guest who will share her own experience as a child of divorced parents. Hear her story, how she was impacted, and how she has navigated her own healing journey. We hope that this provides peace in knowing that there is time to heal, that we all have the ability to choose how other peoples choices impact us, and that we get to have do-overs.

Diane & Rick help a mom with a daughter who is angry at her because she had an affair on her dad. How much detail do kids need about their parents' breakup? What value is the “truth” in these situations? Listen to a discussion about how children form their identities through what they believe about their parents and how to protect a child's self-esteem by limiting negative information about the divorce. Diane mentioned a 2018 study about how adult children of divorce struggle with the parent who badmouthed their other parent when they were children.

Talking about divorce

With many people divorcing later in life, establishing arrangements for elder care has become increasingly important. But what about situations where divorcing couples have special needs children? Our guest, Linda Anderson, a certified elder law attorney, will help us understand how to navigate these issues. Linda is one of approximately 50 certified elder law attorneys in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Her practice, Anderson Elder Law, specializes in the legal issues affecting elders, the disabled, and their families. We are thrilled to have her as a guest for this podcast to help us share the information necessary for families with special needs children who are divorcing to do so with clarity and confidence. The statistics are not clear on whether the risk of divorce increases in families with special needs children. One report states the while the average divorce rate is 50%, the divorce rate for couples with special needs children is 85%. The most common struggle for these couples facing divorce is how to meet the requirements of their special needs children, now and in the future. Your Team of Experts You are likely working with your family attorney as you begin divorce proceedings. You want to ensure that the family law attorney is bringing in a special needs attorney, who has the expertise as it relates to special needs planning and the role of public benefits, and a financial planner, to ensure the structuring of the estate plan for the child is established to determine the rest of the financial settlements. There is an overlap between understanding the public benefits for both seniors and special needs children and the uses of trusts in both cases. It is a body of knowledge that applies not just to people over a certain age but anyone of any age struggling to maintain control of their medical, legal, and financial issues. When caring for the welfare of special needs children – in a divorce situation or not – there must be an understanding of the public entitlements and benefits.  Educate Yourself about Public Benefits SSI (Supplemental Security Income) and Medicaid: these are means-tested; they are determined based on income and assets. SSD (Social Security Disability) and Medicare: these benefits are not means-tested. Let’s take the example of applying for SSI for a 12-year-old special needs child in a situation where the parents are not divorcing. How do parental assets/income affect eligibility? They may choose not to apply for SSI because their resources might exceed eligibility. That does not mean, however, that they will not be eligible for Medicaid. So, it is not a mistake to not apply for SSI. If the child is on SSI when the parents choose to divorce, there are two important issues to consider: SSI and Medicaid are based on income/assets, so when child support enters the picture, it will be considered income. When the custodial parent receives alimony, that is considered income.  Establishing Trusts In most cases, parents choose not to rely on SSI until the child is 18. For a special needs child, child support may never end and will be held dollar-for-dollar against the SSI, in some cases eliminating that payment. The solution? Parents could seek out in-kind distributions or alternative payments, but most will establish a first-party, self-settled Special Needs Trust, aka a D4A trust. That way, the support payments are placed in this trust, and the SSI eligibility is not harmed. Know, however, that with a first-party trust, when the child dies, Medicaid gets paid back. When parents proactively set up a third-party trust for their special needs child, there is no payback to Medicaid. In this type of trust, they need to make sure the beneficiary designations are drafted properly. The TRUST is the designated beneficiary. Establishing a first-party trust is fine when the parents remain married. A third-party trust is the better option should the parents divorce. The Special Needs Alliance (www. specialneedsalliance.org) provides a free trustee guide to help fully understand how to administer special needs trusts.

Today, for the first time ever, A Fine Time for Healing will feature an expert guest who will bring to light a widespread form of child abuse that for many years has been swept under the proverbial rug. This abuse is called "Parental Alienation." Today's guest, Sara Hassman, is a diligent, caring professional with a passion for children's rights. The organization she founded, Parental Alienation Solutions, focuses on bringing awareness to a specific form of child abuse; the emotional abuse of children of divorce who have been taught to hate or fear their other loving parent. This abuse is devastating to both the child and the alienated parent. The long term effects are serious for the child's mental health. A notable percentage of these children end up with substance abuse problems, paralyzing self esteem issues, and may even use suicide as a way to escape the years of unbearable pain. The alienated parent ends up in a lose-lose situation, suffering the heartbreaking destruction of the loving parent/child bond. This powerful show will bring knowledge and awareness to the topic of Parental Alienation, and it will offer those who are victimized by it tools for coping, healing, and prevention.

FINE…LY: My Story of Hope, Love, and Destiny, a deeply penetrating story about HOPE against all odds that builds brick by brick from the bottom up, and then screams VICTORY from the roof-top.
