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."

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.

5 out of 5 stars Lay The Groundwork for Well Adjusted Kids   August 21, 2010

During my divorce process, my attorney handed me a copy of this book. If you follow the tenets of this book--seeing your former spouse as a "business partner" raising your kids together rather than as an ex or as a bad person, it'll make your post-marriage life smoother.

Your feelings about each other are not nearly as important as raising happy, well adjusted children.

I highly recommend this book to people who want their divorce to cause as little trauma as possible for their children and in the long run, for themselves.

As a person experiencing the challenges of trying to help create a happy home environment for my child struggling with divorce, this book provided useful tools. One caveat, you need a willing ex to help achieve some of the goals described. A well intentioned parent cannot fully compensate, if the effort is one-sided effort. Both parents must recognize the needs of the child caught in the middle.

My divorce has been and continues to be a very difficult personal struggle. This book really didn't provide much help. Maybe if I re-read it in a couple of months.


5 out of 5 stars Keith Dysart Santa Cruz Attorney Recommends this Book   February 9, 2010
Rachel D. Dysart (Santa Cruz, California)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The Law Offices of Keith Dysart in Santa Cruz often recommends this book to our clients who are experiencing divorce or other family law issues where the family is going to be splitting into two homes. There are many good points on how to approach the divorce and the issue of custody with one of the most important being the fostering of a business-like relationship. I think every family law attorney should recommend this book to their clients. Cheers! [...].


4 out of 5 stars Good book if you are dealing with two adults. Read Divorce Poison in conjunction with this book if ugly custody situation.   March 4, 2009
Laurie Richards (Missoula)
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!
