Randy Perskin: Discussing Divorce

Differences of opinion between spouses will not necessarily be alleviated once the marriage has been terminated. In fact, it is often the case that they will be exacerbated by the adversarial nature of the proceeeding. Dealing with an ex spouse who is unrealistic and argumentative is difficult however necessary if children are involved. It is important to remain level headed and realize that extended arguments and attempts at persuasion may never lead to a consensus. The best result may be to avoid confrontation and compromise if possible.
