Synopsis
Divorce: It's All About Control - How To Win the Emotional, Psychological and Legal Wars is a book that helps anyone contemplating divorce, going through divorce, or who has been through a divorce or relationship breakup, understand what lies at the heart of the contention that often accompanies the breakup. The book offers ways to constructively handle the three typical wars that control issues usually create and perpetuate. Colorful scenarios of "war situations" kick off each of the 11 chapters and through personalized worksheets, the reader is able to assess his or her status on the divorce wars' front. The reader is then offered numerous tips and strategies for handling the wars with one goal in mind: To win! In addition to useful and practical tips on how to do that, author Phillips throws in a dash of humor both in text and illustrations to keep some levity in what is an otherwise dire subject.
