			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are a party to a pending <strong><a href="http://ireneolszewski.com/divorce.htm">divorce, legal separation, annulment</a></strong>, or <strong><a href="http://ireneolszewski.com/child_support.htm">child custody action in Connecticut</a></strong> – and you have minor children born to the marriage – you are required by law to participate in <strong><a href="http://www.jud.ct.gov/Publications/FM151.pdf">Parenting Education Classes</a></strong>.  These 6-hour classes are designed to teach parents how to help their children adjust in a healthy way to the changes they will experience when their parents divorce and begin living apart.    <a href="http://ireneolszewski.com/ctlawblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/parent_child1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-279" title="parent_child1" src="http://ireneolszewski.com/ctlawblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/parent_child1.jpg" alt="" width="61" height="96" /></a></p>
<p>Obviously, children will have emotional reactions to their parents’ divorce.  The classes assist parents in understanding the developmental stages their children will experience.  Parents will learn guidelines for designing visitation arrangements that can be facilitated with minimal stress on the children.</p>
<p>The cost of the program is $125.00 per parent.  Parties may apply for a waiver of the fees if they cannot afford the cost.  For those couples who have difficulty or fear of being in the same class room together, the classes may be taken separately.  Be advised that a Magistrate or Judge can order your participation in the classes.</p>
<p>While most clients look upon these classes as an expensive hassle, they usually report afterward that they found the classes beneficial and informative.   Either way, they are required … and the effort you expend will benefit your children during an otherwise difficult time in their lives.</p>
