Japan approves plan to join child custody pact | home | Empowerment After Betrayal

Cyber mediation

Websites help divorced couples manage child custody and communication — minus the animosity.

Scheduling meltdowns.

Missed appointments.

Custody hand-offs.

Nasty texts and emails.

Unexplained dental and doctor bills.

For years, these kinds of disputes often led divorced parents into costly court battles and “he said, she said” feuds — with their children caught in the middle. But over the past several years, a spate of high-tech websites are helping fractured families manage their lives in cyberspace, without ever having to raise a voice or pay a lawyer.

Divorce mediators say the websites add efficiency and eliminate the emotion that continues long after the legal war is over. Messages cannot be erased and every entry can be traced, so that there’s no dispute over who said what.
