Holiday Stress and Divorced Parenting
'Tis the season to be thankful, in another month to be jolly, and, if you're still not convinced, a whole new year right around the corner to try again if things don't work out for you through this year's holiday season!

I find relationships the most interesting and yet the most complex. Everything we in life we engage in IS a relationship. There's a direct correlation as to how we react in an intimate relationship and how we respond to our friends, family, and social or work environments. With relationships the challenge is never the other person, it's your choice of that person in the relationship! And because we've all had an opportunity to engage in good and bad ones, everyone can relate to the intention of this article.
