December 06, 2012 (Press-News.org) Common Mistakes Parents Make With Children After Divorce
Divorce can be an emotional and difficult procedure, especially when children are involved. Unfortunately, because of this, and because people may not know what to look out for, sometimes mistakes are made along the way. Learning what mistakes parents often make after their divorce and child custody cases can help them recognize and avoid those mistakes and work toward the best possible outcome for their family.
The Insight of Teachers
Teachers are in a unique position to observe the effects of a divorce on a child from a more objective viewpoint. When divorce affects a family, they are sometimes able to evaluate the process by the child's reaction. How a child handles divorce can speak largely to how the parents are also reacting. An article from the Huffington Post shared insights from teachers to help to parents understand common mistakes after divorce, as explained below.
Common Mistakes Parents Make After Divorce
One common mistake teachers see is a parent trying to buy his or her child's love in order to get back at the other parent. Doing so can teach the child inappropriate behaviors and attitudes and also places the child in a position where they can feel tugged back and forth by each parent. Children shouldn't feel forced to make an impossible decision and pick one parent over the other.
Another mistake parents sometimes make is to excuse their child's poor behavior with the divorce. Even though the divorce process is difficult to handle and has a significant short-term impact on their behavior, children should be discouraged from repeating bad behaviors and helped to find appropriate outlets for their feelings.
Parents may misplace or get caught up in their emotions as well. One common mistake to focus too much on their emotions in the procedure, which can cause someone to lose sight of the big picture. Although divorce is emotional, one's emotions cannot control the process, and latching onto feelings of hurt or anger can impede one's progress toward a resolution.
Another common mistake for parents in divorce and child custody cases is expecting an unreasonable result. If one enters a divorce proceeding thinking they are going to come away with everything, they will likely be disappointed with the outcome. Maintaining reasonable expectations is always important.
Preventing Mistakes
With experience comes wisdom, and the divorce procedure is often new to people experiencing it. When faced with a divorce, having that experience and wisdom on one's side can help a parent recognize and avoid these common mistakes. If you are contemplating divorce, contact an experienced family law lawyer for guidance and strong advocacy on your behalf.

Judges under pressure to eliminate disability claim backlog
Contrary to popular opinion that the Social Security Administration has been struggling with an extraordinarily high caseload in recent years due to high unemployment numbers, the rise in applications is actually due to the fact that there are a growing number of baby boomers reaching their disability prone years and that more women have been working outside the home.

Despite regulations, many surgeons still struggle with fatigue
In an effort to reduce fatigue-related medical errors among notoriously overworked surgical residents, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education implemented new policies in 2003 that limit residents' on-duty hours.
