Communication with ex has gotten better after therapy

Just wanted to share something positive here because this forum can be pretty heavy. My ex and I were in a really bad place, couldn't talk without yelling, making decisions about the kids was a nightmare. We both went to separate therapists and then started doing co-parenting sessions together with a mediator type counselor. It's made such a difference. We're not friends or anything but we can actually discuss stuff without it turning into a fight. The kids have definitely noticed things are calmer. If you're struggling with communication and can afford it, I'd really recommend trying it.
