277. Q&A: Is “nesting” during a divorce better for your kids?

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg and I talk about...

- What does it mean to be “nesting” during a divorce?

- What types of logistical and emotional factors to consider to help you determine if this is a good choice for your family.

- What are the pros and cons of nesting for kids (and for you!)

- How to help kids feel secure during a separation, whether you’ve decided to nest with your ex or not.

- A script for helping your child understand the difference between love in a parent-child relationship and love in a romantic adult relationship. This distinction can help kids who may be worried that they will get left too.
