You want to do what's best for your child. Some days, that's harder than others.

When something happens, we naturally start with our own experience of it. What happened, how it affected us, what we're worried about, what feels unfair, or what we think needs to happen. The guided reflection helps you build out the rest of the picture. As you move through it, you'll think about what matters most to you. What you're trying to accomplish, what your child may need, what might be driving the other parent's position, and what else could be affecting the situation. You may notice something you hadn't considered. You may realize that the problem you're trying to solve isn't actually the real problem. You may see an option you couldn't see when you started. Or you may end up exactly where you began, but with more confidence about why. That's important because BeAligned isn't designed to make decisions for your family. It's designed to help you make better informed decisions for your family. Think of the guided reflection as doing something an instant answer can't do. Instead of just giving you an answer based on what you already see, it helps you see more before you decide.
