Well, having just gotten home from my required parent education class, I even more disagree with Kevin.
I heard reason after reason why it's inappropriate to put the kids in that position. They are going to make their own judgments, have their own feelings. And that's all ok. But for their sake, we can't do anything to try to influence them to take sides. One thing that struck me was that the kids know that each parent is a part of them. And that they see that anything said negative about one parent is also a negative about them. There were a bunch of other reasons, enough that I am totally convinced.
