A COMPASSIONATE FRAMEWORK FOR DIVORCE THAT PRESERVES FAMILY BONDS AND CHALLENGES INDUSTRY NORMS The Good Divorce offers a bold new approach to navigating divorce--one that confronts a system built on conflict and shows couples how to separate -without destroying what matters most. Instead of treating divorce as a battlefield, Karen McNenny reframes it as a family evolution, not a failure, proving that a marriage can end with respect, compassion, and a shared commitment to raising children together. Blending her personal divorce experience with professional expertise, McNenny challenges the pervasive negative narrative that often pushes families toward unnecessary harm. She reveals how our legal system--and its focus on finances over family--fuels conflict instead of cooperation. The book offers a child-centered, dignity-driven path for navigating divorce with clarity, stability, and long-term family well-being. Written for couples seeking a more thoughtful path--and for the professionals who support them--The Good Divorce is a compassionate roadmap for ending a marriage while protecting the family bonds that endure. This book serves up a whopping dose of illumination on the all-too-often fraught topic of divorce. By sharing her personal story, and modeling how families can evolve through divorce, Karen McNenny challenges the norms, and gives families a fresh and practical perspective. --LAURA MUNSON, New York Times bestselling author and founder of the acclaimed Haven Writing Retreats
