There are at least two sides to every conflict, and when it's between divorced or separated parents, sparks can fly.

As a special bonus drop, Jen welcomes co-parenting experts Diane Dierks and Rick Voyles.  On Co-Parent Dilemmas, listeners ask questions like these: 

• What do you do when the other parent won't be flexible with the parenting schedule? 
• How do you respond to a co-parent who is constantly blowing up your phone with texts?
• Is it really important to talk to your children when they are at the other parent's house? 
• And what about the parent who won't share important information with you about the children? Do you give in to the other parent's antics or should you hold your ground?

In today's bonus show, you'll gain insight into the mind of a judge and what things he considers when responding to Candace. 

How do we know when it is time to go back to court?

Should somebody go to court and take the chance, especially if they have limited resources? We all know it is not cheap to go back to court and pay attorneys, especially with delays. It feels like you're shelling out cash right and left, and then, you get to the end of court drama & trauma, and nothing really changes.

It has been said that child support ruins families. But be clear, weaponized child support ruins families. But 50 Cent has a lesson for us all. 

Well played 50. Well played.

You know when you get told, "You knew what you were getting into when you got married, with stepkids," and you just want to flip out and scream in response? Yeah.  Me, too.  Truthfully, no one really understands what they're getting into when they enter into a blended family.

It's complicated.  Listen in as Megan Bottom and I share real-life blended scenarios, talk about that 'woman' in our blended homes, decision fatigue, boundaries, and having a game plan in place.  Often, when we are overwhelmed, it leads to poor decisions. Hence, the emphasis on the importance of unity with your spouse and having mutually respected boundaries that guide and protect.
