Family Mediation

Theory and Practice with Chinese Families

It is important to understand that when a marriage is over, it is not the time for retribution and revenge, but rather the opportunity to strike out for a new life while providing for and protecting the children. This book — the first comprehensive treatment of family mediation for Chinese families – provides the knowledge and skills to achieve that objectives. Throughout the book the author discusses practical techniques for resolving family conflicts and creating parenting plans. The model described enables mediators — who may be social work, psychology or legal professionals – to negotiate the issues in dispute so as to arrive at a settlement that is mutually acceptable, and is fair and equitable to the families. Divorcing couples should also read the book because it will help them with ideas and principles leading towards amicable solutions.
