Rosen Divorce Stresses the Importance of Celebrating Mother’s Day

Raleigh, NC- As the largest divorce firm in the state known for its unique approach to handling marital disputes, Rosen Divorce is always looking for ways to help fix relationships between parents. While many mothers will be celebrating Mother’s Day with their children, a number of mothers will celebrate Mother’s Day in a different way, without their kids. Rosen Divorce is encouraging families apart to help children spend this Mother’s Day with mom and they're also encouraging families together to recognize this holiday.

“A lot of times we see couples getting a divorce fail to specify in their separation agreement that the kids will spend Mother’s Day with the mother,” says Janet Fritts, an attorney with Rosen Divorce. “They’ll specify who gets the kids during Christmas and Easter, but they might forget to agree on who gets the kids the weekend of Mother’s Day. If the father only has the kids two out of fourteen days, he’ll likely be unwilling to let the kids spend Sunday, Mother’s Day, with the mom.”

Members of the firm say it’s an important way for people who are co-parenting to increase amicability of the situation by helping their children celebrate Mother’s Day with their mother. Also, issues build around child support where if the father is paying child support to the mother, he might not be willing to help the child purchase a gift for mom. Yet Fritts stresses the importance of parents teaching their children respect, which includes recognizing their mothers on Mother’s Day by purchasing even a small gift, a gesture just as important on Father’s Day.

Rosen Divorce also stresses the importance of Mother’s Day for families that are still together. “Mother’s Day is usually the breaking point in a lot of relationships where there are children,” said Fritts. “Just after Mother’s Day we typically see an increase in women concerned that their marriage is deteriorating and explore divorce as an option. Maybe they didn’t get anything special for Christmas, and for Valentine’s Day they just got a card, if anything, but if Mother’s Day is forgotten they really feel a lack of respect and love.”
