I, Jennifer Valentine-Miller introduced the radio edition of A Month for Emotions from the studio of PRZ FM 109.2 in 2018, this was my second radio production for the company.

Many feel at peace at night with the comfort of sleeping comfortably not constantly sweating. There is however, those from our community who go through storms and also the added heat of physically living apart from their children. This is an area of life that has been close to my heart for a long time. In my presentation I use scripture references from 1 John 3 because Christ the father still loves even though many times and for long periods of time we separate ourselves from him. There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. As I go along I will also include tips from parent’s, references from the Child Support Agency, on line forums from my platform at Healing Relations PR, as well as from the charity Gingerbread.

Becoming a separated dad or mum when you’ve been a full-time parent isn’t easy. Trying to adapt from being with them all the time, to limited visits maybe once or twice a week – or even less in some cases – can be heart breaking, for child and parent.

A case situation sees a father of a seven-year-old boy. He separated from his son’s mother when their son was two. Until recently he had been denied access to contact or see his son, and had to go to court in order to be granted a contact order.

Coping with not seeing his son turns out to be very difficult. Being involved in their life since they were born, then all of a sudden every 2 weeks can soon evolve into months and then years can be devastating. This situation can have any man (much less a women) constantly on the edge of tears. It seems that drastic award of an interim contact order, allowed the communication between father and sonto be improved considerably.

Girls grow up considerable quickly, you will find that by the age of 11 and 1. they become more independent. Any mother or father will say that when they are separated from their children, it is often better not to think about them. Although there will always be sadness and anger and the ever longing need to see them more, so that they can be a part of one’s life again.
