"Hello, I am Patti German, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, in New York City. In this clip, we're going to talk about how to negotiate visitation rights. I think the most important thing to focus on, in visitation rights, are the children. This isn't about you, or hurting your husband in some way, in denying him or her, the opportunity to see the children. If you keep the focus on the children, and you do what is right for them, you will understand that it will work much more smoothly and easier, and if you're allowing your ex to be with the children, it gives you extra time alone. It doesn't mean that the children are going to love him more, or he's going to hurt them. Obviously, if there are visitation rights that are in place, it's about encouraging it, and allowing the natural relationship to develop, so that the children don't take sides, and can really feel the full love, of each of their parents. This is Patti German, in New York City."
