I heard two interviews from these authors on satalite radio and web cast and I think they need special mentioning, I also really hope it is a new way the legal profession is looking at the issues of divorce and hopefully will follow up with some new laws and guidlines because things are way outta hand as they are in both Canada and the US.
This first book is from a sitting Judge in the US her name is Judge Michele Lowrance and it is called "The Good Karma Divorce". I have not had the oppertunity to read it through yet but I will, and maybe report on it, but it discusses what would seem to be a common sense way of dealing with divorce if all else fails, it is a positive unaggressive way to negotiate seperation on good terms leaving an amicable relationship in tact instead of adversarial. From what I have read and understood so far I think this book should be the first guideline or step in any divorce

The second is a book by Wendy Jaffe, Esq. and while I have only seen an interview of her and her book "Divorce Lawyers' Guide to Staying Married" what I saw was impressive and I hope will become something for the legal system to serioulsy read and consider and get away from making the process so adversarial and diffucult when the situatio is difficult enough.

There seems to be some big names giving good reviews of these books and authors and I hope to obtain a copy of both of these books so I can thoroughly read and share with friends in similar situations and get their opinions and share them as well. The divorce system in Canada and the US is broken and needs to be changed now, and like I mentioned before I hope these two are pioneers in what is a new phase of Family Law
A site to discuss, inform, hopefully help, and maybe one day particiapte in changing Canadas Family laws to to make it fair equal and just for all involved. My beliefe is make family councillors the primary investigator and decision maker in all divorce cases. The councillor would spend a week or more with each side and teh children to get a real feel of the households, then make a recommendation with some binding attributes, which is necessary a judge could finalize.
