Divorce support for women

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Judy Osborne, author of Wisdom for Separated Parents:Rearranging Around the Children to Keep Kinship Strong. Through interviews separated parents, Judy uncovers another trait of Baby Boomers: the concept of separated family members as “kin,” forever linked by love for, and responsibility to, their children. When Judy and I [...]
