Dr Barbara Jo Fidler has generously contributed an article about parenting coordination to our website, which can be found here:

Parenting coordination is something fairly new. Parenting coordination is a service for high-conflict couples who are experiencing chronic difficulties in resolving parenting issues.
Please note that immediately after separation, it's fairly common for there to be high conflict, especially about parenting issues. However, normally the conflicts are resolved soon afterwards, either with an agreement or a court order. However, for some parents, the conflict continues for quite a long time after separation, and this is where parenting coordination is very helpful.
If anyone has had any experience with or comments about parenting coordination, please feel free to share it here.
