Many counties in Texas require divorcing parents to attend parenting classes to learn how divorce can impact children and how to focus on the best interests of the children. Your lawyer will notify you if the judge requires you to take a parenting class. You won’t have to attend the class with your ex-spouse and no information you disclose during the class can be used in court. It may be possible to take the class online. Once you have completed the class, a certificate of completion will be submitted to the court.
