5/23/2004

Are you looking for practical, easy-to-understand answers to any of the following questions?

My oldest child is starting college this year. Will I have to pay for college and child support?

Our child just called to say that he was divorcing his wife and he needs our help. What should we do? What should we not do?

My spouse has a smoking habit. Will secondhand smoke play a role in my child custody case?

I just got a notice from the Internal Revenue Service that my ex-husband and I owe taxes for 1996 because we underreported income. What can I do?

What's the best way to tell our children that we are getting a divorce?

My spouse just told me she wasn't happy in our marriage. What can I do?

You can find the answers to these questions and many more at SmartDivorce.com, a web site launched by Broken Heart Publishing in November 1998.

"SmartDivorce is an excellent site with lots of good information," says Patricia Guadette, the divorce support guide at the Mining Company (http://divorcesupport.miningco.com). Laura Johnson, the content designer of SmartDivorce, says, "We wanted something different from other divorce sites. After looking at all the other web sites that have divorce information, we set up SmartDivorce.com in a news format and divided it into four separate areas."

New articles covering divorce topics are published each month in Divorce HotTips, a free electronic magazine. The articles in Divorce HotTips provide educational information about many of the challenges faced by separated or divorced spouses and their families.

Divorce News & Views is a free monthly electronic newsletter delivered to the e-mail boxes of anyone who has asked to receive it. Regular features in Divorce News & Views discuss divorce and money, parenting through and after a divorce, tips to help save a marriage, and an article by a guest columnist. In addition, there are sections for a Divorce Joke of the Month, a Web Site or E-zine of the Month, Reader Feedback, and a list of What's New at SmartDivorce.com.

Another area of the web site lists divorce support groups and parenting education programs throughout the United States. Readers are welcome to add their group or program to the current listings.

The Divorce Help Resources center contains a catalog of books and booklets about divorce. "The books in Divorce Help Resources were hand-picked from several independent publishers throughout the country," says Laura Johnson, who has over ten years of front-line experience in the divorce industry. "The books were chosen because of their non combative approach to divorce, their positive messages for parents who were getting a divorce, and their easy to read and understand format."

For more information, call 1-888-655-7023. Media review copies of any of the books in Divorce Help Resources are available upon request.
