Children love new toys and tend to ask for many of them. However, nothing means more to them than spending time with you. Give them time, energy, love, and presence–it means more than any toy you could buy. Contact Safe Time Supervised Visitation to reconnect with your child.

Spending time with your kids means more than sitting in the same room as them. It involves being fully present and engaged during your time together. You are one of your child’s favorite people, and they yearn for your attention. #parenting #coparenting #custody

[Heather Hedrick, M.Ed. MBA @Safetimevisits]

Be fully engaged in the moment; not focused on your phone or any other distraction. As parents, we should be focused and present in the moments we have with our children. #bepresent #betheparent #parenting

If you think your ex is endangering the children, talk to your lawyer. His advice will rarely be to withhold the kids. Unless the court signs an modifying order, disobeying that schedule is violating the court order. #dotherightthing #coparenting #family #childcustody

Profanity, especially the “serious” obscenities, is often evidence of an anger issue, and is bad co-parenting. When directed at the other parent, it’s emotional abuse. When directed at the kids, it’s child abuse. #juststop #custody #coparenting #nocussing #profanity

Children will thank you later if you don’t use co-parenting to retaliate against the other parent. There are plenty of mental health and parenting professionals who can explain the very real and positive psychological impact on children of being a good co-parent.

It happens to the best of parents, frustration levels rise, and after taking whatever mud the other parent has been throwing at you for months, you finally give back as good (or bad!) as you got. And by doing so, you’ve taken a step towards becoming a bad co-parent. #staycalm

Using profanity in front of a child is down right bad! A child is only innocent once, why do you want to ruin that? Good parents do not use profanity towards or around their children. Period. #noprofanity #childabuse #custody #trashtalk

Supervised visitation rights are often granted when the courts fear the potential actions of the non-custodial parent, and want to provide for the safety and security of the child. We can help. https://t.co/xkkDYjXHGt #safetime #supervisedvisitation

Parental Alienation Part 2: A court can require reunification or supervised visitation programs, in which the child spends time with the alienated parent under supervision to rebuild the relationship. #pas #custody #parenting #supervisedvisitation

[Heather Hedrick, M.Ed. MBA @Safetimevisits]

Parental alienation is when one parent intentionally displays to the child unjustified negativity aimed at the other parent. The may arise during divorce or custody battles. Parental alienation is wrong and a form of psychological abuse that can be addressed in court. #pas
