Article: You might have moved out of the house. However, as you await your custody hearing, you need to stay in regular contact with the children. Try to visit as often as you can. Keep detailed notes about your contact. For example, you should keep a journal in which you write down the dates and times that you visited or called. If you are away for work, then document that as well. You should have a reason if you can't see your children regularly. You don't want your children injured when they visit you. Furthermore, you want to show the judge that you keep a safe home. Make sure to address any obvious hazards, such as loose stairs or exposed wires. Also make sure your home is clean and neat. Also keep dangerous products out of the reach of your children. Lock up any firearms and ammunition, and keep chemicals or prescription drugs in cabinets. As part of the custody dispute, the judge might order that you undergo a custody evaluation. The social worker who handles the evaluation might visit your home, so you should address any problems quickly. You should imagine that the judge is standing right beside you at all times. If you show anger, you can expect the other parent to tell the judge. For this reason, you should control your anger at all times. This might be very difficult, particularly if your separation was emotionally painful. Nevertheless, try to come up with strategies for minimizing your contact with the other parent. For example, if you have visitation, then agree to pick up the children from school and drop them back off at school. In this way, you can avoid seeing the other parent. Judges want children to maintain good relationships with both parents. For this reason, they will not reward you if you try and turn the children against the other parent. Avoid saying anything negative about the other parent. If your children start talking about their other parent, listen quietly. You aren't required to respond. Also don't try to keep your children from the other parent. If your children are living with you, then make all hand-offs for visitation on time. The judge will be unhappy if you make it difficult for the other parent to see their children. You can expect your children to tell the other parent anything you tell them. For this reason, you probably shouldn't tell the children that you lost your job or that your new boyfriend just got arrested. In fact, you might want to limit your children's contact with any new romantic partner. There is no reason to drag this new person into the custody dispute. Your lawyer wants what is best for you. Accordingly, you should always listen to what he or she says. If your lawyer recommends that you do something, then ask questions if you don't understand why. But try to follow your lawyer's recommendations.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Stay in constant contact with your children. Maintain a safe home. Avoid showing anger. Don't badmouth the other parent to your children. Watch what you tell your children. Listen to your lawyer.
Article: Some people feel that what you use to keep your diary in isn't important. For some, this may be true. For many people, however, having a diary that feels right makes it easier to write. Go shopping for diaries at a store so you can pick up and examine different choices, holding them in your hand to get the feel for each. Choose something that is appealing to you, but not so pretty you'll be afraid to write in it or get it messy. Writing in a diary isn't all about being neat and orderly. The best diaries are often messy and jumbled. Consider the size of your diary. Many people like to carry their diaries with them. If you anticipate this, a smaller choice might be right for you. On the other hand, if you plan on doing artistic, scrapbook style layouts, you'll probably need something a little bigger. Similarly, some people find it easier to write with some particular type of pen. If a cheap disposable feels fine to you, don't worry about it, but if you prefer a nicer pen, pay a little extra for something you'll feel good writing with. Again, visit a store such as an art supply shop and try out different pens. See what feels best for you. The idea here is to make you want to write, so you can keep up the habit daily. Not everyone who keeps a diary does so on paper. While many people find they are more creative and focused writing in a physical book, others are content to keep a diary online. An online diary avoids the risk of loss. On the other hand, there is always the risk that it could be hacked, or the server might crash. Consider the pros and cons and decide what's right for you. If you opt for an online diary, there are numerous options available such as Livejournal, Penzu, or Diary.com. Some of these websites allow you to make some of your writing public while keeping other material private.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Find a diary that is appealing to you. Experiment with different pens. Consider online journaling.
