For Kids' Sake

Divorce is a painful and confusing experience for all children. Even the most loving and caring parents find it difficult to focus on their children's needs during such a traumatic time -- and they seldom have the necessary skills to help their children with the resulting change and loss.

As an educational model, For Kids' Sake does not deal with personal or legal issues, nor is it intended to be a substitute for counsel. The overwhelming majority of parents who have participated in For Kids' Sake feel it is a very supportive and worthwhile experience.

Who may attend? Any interested person or professional is invited. Parents involved in a divorce, motion to modify, or other suits involving the parent/child relationship may be required by the court to attend.

When and where are the seminars held? Seminars are held at LaGrone Advanced Technology Complex, Denton, TX 76209 from 6-10 pm. For seminar dates check www.familyresource-nt.org or call 940-566-1800.


Who facilitates the seminars? Professional parent educators lead the sessions. Generally a male and female co-facilitate.

What is the cost? Fees are $40 per person, payable in advance by money order only. Fees may be waived by the courts for individuals unable to pay.

What information is covered? For Kids' Sake focuses on issues such as understanding the effects of divorce on children, gaining insight into children's perceptions of divorce, talking to children about family changes, how to avoid placing children in the middle of parental issues, and maintaining a meaningful and loving relationship with children.

“This program is excellent. I thank God I came to this class. All the things that my wife and I would argue about were petty compared to the well being and normal growth of our children.”
