There is nothing more precious than our children. Consequently, it is essential that parents or partners set aside their differences, resentments and bickering so that they can act in the best interest of the children. Northern Community Mediation mediators help in this process. Who will get the children for the various holidays? How will weekends be handled? What will the arrangements be during the week? What about vacation time? Whatever the concerns of the parents are can be discussed in mediation.

Using the process of mediation to determine parenting time is a civil and effective means of handling a delicate situation. Additionally, it is less confrontational than relying upon the court to make the decisions.
