Summer is just around the corner, tomorrow in fact, but for divorced parents, planning can be more complicated than ever.
Today on the MIX Morning Show, Sean Kelly and Mariam Serkal sat down with Dr Julie Gowthorpe, RSW, on how to find the perfect strategy to ensure a stress-free summer for co-parents and their kids.
Financial planning is also important. More than ever, summer activities can get expensive, so it’s important for co-parents to discuss and agree on a budget. Decide together how much each parent will contribute and what types of activities are feasible.
Whether it’s day camps, sports programs, or hiring a part-time nanny, finding affordable – whatever that means for your situation – that both parents agree on is key to avoiding financial strain.
