Our today's guest is Judy Osborne.  She will talk about her book, Wisdom For Separated Parents.

"In the 1960s and 70s, when parents began separating in large numbers, experts urged that they minimize contact with one another for fear of “confusing” their children. As we assess the successful (and less successful) approaches adopted by long-separated parents, how are the views of therapists and experts changing?What kind of advice are experts giving separating parents today?" --  Judy Osborne
