A co-parenting mediator or coordinator’s job is to meet with the parents and deal with any conflicts that they are facing. They will listen to both sides speak and find any common themes or issues. Then, the mediator will talk with both parents to help work on agreeing to a resolution. This can either be together or separately.
Mediators won’t make the hard decisions for you, though. The parents are ultimately the ones that will make the final decision. The mediator will guide you along the way and help you to create the plan that will be best for everyone in the family.
