A Day to Celebrate

April 26, 2021 by Matt Hale

April 26th is truly a day to celebrate. It is Shared Parenting Day not just for shared parenting supporters but families across our great nation. Children need both parents and we should celebrate when they have both of their caregivers in their lives.

Many adults and children have suffered by being separated by judges and laws. In fact, the day before Shared Parenting Day is Parental Alienation Day. Parental alienation is truly harrowing experience for children and parents.

However, we have hope and love in our hearts that things are slowly getting better. That is why we celebrate Shared Parenting Day. April 26th honors the day the nation’s first shared parenting law in Kentucky. And, this year, we have reason to celebrate as Arkansas just became the second shared parenting state.

So, let’s all wear yellow and celebrate those families who do have shared parenting. Let’s hope that next year’s Shared Parenting Day has even more states with shared parenting laws. We have a long way to go but Kentucky and Arkansas that things are looking up for children.
