Divorce & Sports Parenting Conflict
It’s common for youth sports to cost $10K + per year per
student-athlete. This includes league fees, team travel, private coaches, and
summer camps. Between the time and
expense, youth sports lead to child support and parenting plan conflicts – what
sports to play, financial sacrifices, time commitments, and safety issues
create a lot of ground for arguments (i.e. – more trips to court to spend time
and money to argue about…time and money).
A practical guide for sports parenting conflict is William
Ury’s three-part series (Harvard Negotiation Project):

Getting To Yes (Interest-Based Negotiations)
