A Happy Child

Our mission at Kids Need Both Inc is to bring education and mediation to professionals and individuals impacted by high conflict families through co-parenting education and child visitation solutions. There are 54 divorces for every one hundred marriages in Florida. And many of those divorces involve children. The likelihood of legal battles among ex-partners who have children together is high. Children are caught in the middle of a volatile situation, and many times expected to participate against one parent in support of the other. The predictable future if no action is taken, is that children caught in the middle may become, at the very least, resentful of being robbed of a harmonious childhood. At the worst, the relationship with one or both parents is destroyed. This kind of high-conflict upbringing could also lead to a repeat pattern of destructiveness in the child's future relationships with partners and their own children. Author, Danica Joan seeks to create an opportunity for concerned parents, child advocates and the legal system to consider handling highly volatile custody battles differently. This possibility can be realized through harmony and workability versus destructive force. Now, through the efforts of numerous individuals, Kids Need Both, Inc is a thriving non-profit agency based in Central Florida that offers State approved co-parenting classes, court ordered life skills classes, mediation and custody coaching. Classrooms are located throughout Central and South Florida and also online.
