Program for Military Members through Moody AFB Regarding the Effects of Divorce on Minor Children

Because of the extremely emotional nature of divorce and its impact on children, the Superior Court Judges of the Southern Judicial Circuit enacted by Court Order, (December 22, 1997), requiring divorcing parents to attend a mandatory parenting seminar.

This Seminar, called Crossroads for Parenting and Divorce, is approved by the Southern Judicial Circuit Superior Court Judges for military members through Moody Air Force Base in all divorce, separate maintenance, paternity (once established), change of custody, visitation, legitimation (once established), and by specific order of the Court, where the interests of children less than eighteen years of age are involved.

The purpose of the Seminar gives parents information on topics, including the divorce process and how it affects children, developmental stages of children, communication skills, identifying when a child may need help, and the effects of economics of divorce on children.
