“Had an unreasonable co-parent”

Michael E.
1/7/23

This saved a lot of endless emails and text and monitored the behavior of the other parent by the court. This helped save a lot of name calling and other unhealthy behavior. It did not stop it, but it did help. Best 9.99 a month I have spent in a long time

“Don't Do It!”

Absolutely horrible. I think they fully take advantage of a family's difficult situation to make money off you. I was using this app for my very volatile situation with my ex-husband, I had over a years worth of correspondence between us and then they pulled my account from me until I upgraded! I obviously was forced to upgrade in order to get back all the evidence of the verbal abuse I put up with co-parenting with my ex. Absolutely disgusting tactic to make money off of people in abusive terrible situations. Don't sign up for it….there has to be better ways than this.

The ex merely uses this app to send me requests for money. She makes ALL of the decisions without my informed consent then merely sends me requests for money. I've been as cordial as anyone could possibly be in my asking her to actually CO-PARENT together. But no, she just needs it on record that she's sent the "invoice", so to speak. These sorts of apps don't actually help. It's another indicator of the times. How does this app which gives parents the freedom to be irresponsible with the rights of the child's "non-custodial"'parent help the child? It seems to only work to keep their parents firmly in their childish lack of accountability which led to the poor behaviors of one or both of the parents to begin with. I don't hate the app, but I hate the reason for it. It isn't right.

This was court ordered for me as an end result of 3 years of dealing with a delusional and toxic person. They have exhausted every ounce of trust I have for them to do the right things so I'm just happy to finally have a platform in which I don't have to personally deal with them, and most important everything is documented leaving zero room or chance to lie so thumbs up so far

I am an attorney that has recommended to my clients', and had the Court order the parties, to use this app over 60 times. None of my clients are happy with the service, they complain they do not always receive their messages and complain about the price - mainly because it is advertised as free. There are alternatives, like divorce wizard.

There many other no charge site, Yahoo etc. where you can keep your, the only plus side is you know when the other party has read your email (similar to outlook email receipts)
They do charge if you want copies of the conversations ie emails, $40

Hi Ralph. You are correct that there are free ways to communicate, but they are not as in depth and as accurate as what Talking Parents can provide. Talking Parents was created by a team with a law background, so they know exactly what information can be brought into court. There is a fee to receive records from us, as these records have been certified as accurate by our team and can be brought into a courtroom. Please let us know if there is anything else that we can do to serve you.
