It's a must read if you're getting divorced and you have children. Inside The Intelligent Divorce: -Your Child's Bill of Rights -When, What, and How to Tell the Kids -Strategies for Parenting When Under Stress -Raising Responsible Children during a Divorce -How to Spot Developmental Risks with Your Children -The Ten Commandments of an Intelligent Divorce -Plus a Bonus Chapter: "Creating a Parenting Agreement"

Book One in The Intelligent Divorce Series, "Taking Care of Your Children" (2010), focuses on the well being of kids.

This book helps you gauge how your child is doing with the divorce and what you can do to make a difference.

Book Two, "Taking Care of Yourself" (2011), helps parents to take control of their lives by handling anger and anxiety more productively; learning about finances and healthier living; and dealing realistically with the world of attorneys, therapists and difficult ex spouses.

Book Three, Dealing with a Difficult Ex, is scheduled to come out in 2012.

The Intelligent Divorce Online Course: As an adjunct to the book series, we will be offering "The Family Stabilization Course," a video-based online course scheduled to launch later this summer, based on the principles found in the book series that are crucial to a successful divorce.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, Covers A LOT June 22, 2010
By Toby
Format:Paperback
My friend recently purchased Dr. Banschick's book on divorce and keeping your kids first. A lot of people forget to care for their children properly during divorce, and Dr. Banschick aims to rectify that. The book covers everything from communication with your child to your child's bill of rights. Children are the unintentional victims of adults' actions. With this book, my friend really gained a lot of insight into how her divorce was affecting her children, as well as herself. If you know someone who is in the middle of a divorce, or who is struggling from a recent divorce, recommend this book to them- I'm sure it will do a lot of good for them and their relationship with their kids.
The book is aimed for divorced adults with children, and there is a lot of information in there. It is coherent and easy to understand. He avoids medical jargon so that his points come across crystal clear.

This book is a must read for all involved in divorce. It is detailed, yet easy to read with practical advice. There is bound to be something in this book where you will say to yourself, "that's my situation".

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb book January 26, 2012
Format:Paperback
Dr. Banschick's optomistic approach in Intelligent Divorce is rooted in his sensitive empathy,his creativity in establishing a therapeutic alliance, and his ability to see beneath the symptoms which disguise a child's fears and needs.
I wish Dr. Banschick had been arount seventy years ago when my parnts divorced.
