DIVORCE/CUSTODY

Fathers' Rights
by Jeffery M. Leving
with Kenneth A. Dachman, Ph.D.

Millions of fathers are currently embroiled in the fight of their lives to win custody of their children. Wounded by the acrimony and greed that often accompany divorce proceedings, many wonder if they will ever again be an important part of their sons' and daughters' lives. With this landmark book, renowned men's rights attorney Jeffery M. Leving offers disenfranchised fathers true hope and meaningful advice certain to save you years of anguish and possibly thousands of dollars.

Illustrated with vivid real-life examples, Fathers' Rights is a practical guide and essential reading for the scores of American fathers routinely excluded from their children's lives by a biased legal system in which avarice and recrimination too often overwhelms compassion and justice.

Families Apart
by Melinda Blau

Divorce means the end of marriage; it does not mean the end of a family. Families Apart offers a new, healthier approach to how families can function after divorce and guarantee children their "right" to both parents. Melinda Blau synthesizes the best advice of mental health professionals, shares her and her ex-husband's trials and triumphs in establishing their own "family apart," and trumpets the hard-earned wisdom of scores of other successful co-parents.

Most important, Families Apart delivers the hopeful message that it is possible to put aside your marital conflicts for your children's sake, to maintain contact with the "other family," and to use creative problem-solving to negotiate the inevitable disagreements. Blau teaches the co-parent how to maintain the attitudes necessary to sidestep the pitfalls and maximize the triumphs, and how to keep your family apart thriving for years to come.

Putting Kids First:
Walking Away from a Marriage
Without Walking Over the Kids

by Michael L. Oddenino

"Believe me, litigation is not the solution for children, it is the choice of the uninformed, the uninspired and the unenlightened." With these words Michael Oddenino, divorced father and attorney for the Children's Rights Council, presents the central theme of his book, Putting Kids First: Walking Away From a Marriage Without Walking Over the Kids.

In his personal and legal life Oddenino has witnessed too many children emotionally and psychologically torn apart by divorcing parents. Experience has taught him, "Parents time and time again make the same mistake of trying to get even with each other while forgetting the devastating effects their behavior has on the children." Putting Kids First is an invaluable resource for divorcing parents and professionals in all fields of activities who deal with matrimonial breakup.

The Custody Revolution:
The Father Factor and
the Motherhood Mystique

by Richard A. Warshak, Ph.D.

When parents divorce, child custody is the most complex and difficult issue they face. This book shows why so many of the problems attributed to divorce are often the results of our custody practices. Written by one of the leading authorities on custody arrangements, this book draws on important research to present a revolutionary new blueprint for custody decisions.

Aside from practical advice, The Custody Revolution offers the hope that the drama of divorce can be performed in a civilized manner, on a stage illuminated by wisdom and compassion for our children. Dr. Warshak shows why handling the custody decision with responsibility, wisdom, sanity, and sensitivity is the single most important thing parents can do to help their children cope with the crisis of divorce.
