Product Description
The groundbreaking classic, now revised, updated and expanded, covers the legal, financial and emotional realities of creating two happy and stable homes for children in the often difficult and confusing aftermath of a divorce.

Amazon.com Review
According to the Stepfamily Association of America, 60 percent of all families are breaking up, and custody and visitation issues loom large in the lives of many parents. Isolina Ricci's Mom's House, Dad's House guides separated, divorced, and remarried parents through the hassles and confusions of setting up a strong, working relationship with the ex-spouse in order to make two loving homes for the kids. This expanded and revised edition (the book was originally published in 1980) includes emotional and legal tools, as well as many reference materials and resources. As one parent said of the first edition, "This book is my friend."

Good book if you are dealing with two adults. Read Divorce Poison in conjunction with this book if ugly custody situation. by Laurie Richards (Missoula) 4 Stars
March 04, 2009
Great book. Most people recommend the book. Thought it was an excellent book for most divorced parents and for the kids. My daughter read the kids' version and loved it. Highly recommended for those simple questions. Divorce Poison by Richard A. Warshak is recommended when one of the parents is not willing to work with another in the best interest of the kids. Have a narcissic ex-partner or having issues with child alienated which Mom's House, Dad's House doesn't answer, try Warshak's book until you can get both of the parents to follow Mom's House, Dad's House. Recommend the kid's version of Mom's House, Dad's House. It really helped my daughter with knowing HER rights in our messy divorce when the parents failed to remember the rules!

SAVE YOURSELF SOME GRIEF AND GET THIS BOOK by Mark Marker (Chicago Illinois Area) 5 Stars
October 25, 2007
Start the divorce off right if that is possible. Especially when comes to the kids. As a man who has custody of OUR child I respect and appreciate this books insights. You see that this is the norm for different situations so one can watch for it and react appropriately. If you cant be friend's then you as matter as well be "corporate friends" and try to make things work for your kids sake. You would'nt be rude or demeaning to another co-worker so dont treat your ex-spouse that way either. Good luck!
