Coparenting in Captivity comic #60: The junk kids watch these days.

#60

The junk kids watch these days. 📺

LEGAL THROWDOWN — Round 3 Blue corner: DAD (67 points) Red corner: MOM (62 points)

BE PRESENT sign on the wall.

Kids watching their parents' custody battle like it's a pay-per-view event is not entirely a metaphor. Children of high-conflict divorce absorb the conflict. They keep score. They root for someone. They feel the weight of every round.

The fight is for them — but it's happening to them.

The best thing you can do for the kids watching from the couch is to make sure there are fewer rounds, not more.

Turn off the match. Be present. 💙
