Children need parents to play a significant role in their lives; separation often impacts the availability of important parent time. Children in two-home families generally build skills and competency in self-responsibility, organization, teamwork, and so forth out of necessity. This is not a bad thing. It is essential, however, that you stay aware of the demands placed on kids and how they’re coping. If possible, you want kids to stay in their own lives while you create new ways of running a household as a new team led by one adult instead of two.

Keep in mind that older children still need monitoring, even as they argue to the contrary. However mature, teens need to be doing age-appropriate activities, building strong peer relationships, and engaging in school with adult input.

During teen years, parents move from being a “teaching parent” to becoming a “trusting parent,” allowing healthy teens to test their decision-making ability, trustworthiness, and moral compass. The job of parents is to prepare these eaglets to be eagles as they take flight into adulthood.
