“No way!” he said. “Just can’t happen.” This was the response I got when I tried to explain the Divorce with Dignity Network and it’s vision to a friend, who is still reeling from the aftermath of a divorce that was final 3 years ago.
I am divorced and in my mind, it can happen – but you need two things. You need two people who really desire and agree to keep things as ‘nice’ as possible and, you need a Divorce with Dignity professional.
What does the Divorce with Dignity professional provide? Two more things: information and guidance mixed in with experience.
There’s a lot of information out there about divorce and how to do it. The paperwork is lengthy and time-consuming for the inexperienced. Most people find it difficult to stay focused and on track when you are going through the emotional roller coaster of a divorce. And, some people might find it difficult to be ‘nice’ during this stressful transition. A Divorce with Dignity provider offers a safe place for a couple to get to know their options and discuss them. All the information necessary for a divorce in their state is readily available in one place. A ‘road map’ is provided! A couple can then decide what’s best for them, without having to navigate through the divorce on opposite sides at a much higher price.
“Yes,” I answer. “There really is such a thing as a Divorce with Dignity!”
