Rule #5

5. Do not criticize your ex-spouse. (That is criticizing your child!) This may be the hardest rule of all. Children instinctively know that, on a cellular level, they are made up of both of you. You might as well be saying, "You are a loser!" when you call your ex-spouse one. There is a saying that goes, "When shooting an arrow of truth, one must first dip it in honey." Buy honey by the case!
