This report reflects what children said they would like from the time their parents separate to after the Family Law process officially concludes. This is supported by best practice case studies of how these steps could be achieved and recommendations to bring the focus onto children.

This four year follow-up study assesses outcomes from post-separation family dispute resolution. It compares outcomes for two groups of separated parents who attended mediation over parenting disputes and engaged either in Child Focused mediation or in Child Inclusive mediation.
