Any last words of advice? Can anybody give me a heads up on what to expect? I was told by one person this only has to do with the divorce. Not child support, not the kids at all. Im a bit confused.
Any info would be greatful. I want to walk in there knowing more than him. Well, that really wont be hard to do!! LOL
Thanks all.

I know absolutely nothing about mediation. But I just wanted to wish you good luck! let us know how it went, and what it was!

Bring in tax returns and all financial papers. Credit card bills etc. Know how much has to go out each month. Look at this as a business deal only. Try not to let your emotions get in the way at all. If he yells, sit there and smile. Don't yell back. The mediator will send him out of the room if he's a jerk. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I am absolutely FURIOUS right now, so I am ready for WAR! No, I wont yell. I know he will and he will only make himself look bad, like always! I actually cant wait! I know he is in for a rude awakening:)
Thanks guys!

I didn't have mediation though it was ordered. My x ended up in the hospital with pancreatitis (one of the main causes is heavy drinking) and it was cancelled.

Hey, D.....I just said a prayer for you and I'm thinking about you now as your mediation starts. I hope you will be relaxed and I just know things will go in your favor. Let us know when you get home.
