Divorce and Co-parenting:
A Support Guide For the Modern Family
Confused about the divorce process (and maybe a little nervous about what to expect)? Deadlocked in a custody battle? Concerned about the impact of a divorce on your young kids, teenagers, or even your adult children? Samantha was privileged to co-author Divorce & Co-Parenting: A Support Guide for the Modern Family with a leading psychiatrist. The book’s goal is to demystify divorce and co-parenting, offering practical information about the law, suggesting age-appropriate strategies for talking to kids of all ages about divorce, and helping you to rebuild your family in a positive, healthy way after a divorce. Find it at Barnes & Noble, on Amazon, and through the American Psychiatric Association.
