It's not uncommon with emotions running at an all time high, for our judgment to become clouded and perhaps make irrational choices, especially in sensitive areas such as divorces.<br />With these life changing decisions, these are commonly seen mistakes made during the process:
1. Venting on Social Media
Let's face it. We live in a time of we need it right now, and right now often includes blowing off steam instantly to all and sundry on social media, after all we can barely go five minutes without checking or posting on our social media .  Posting about delicate matters such as divorces can hurt you in the long run and can be used against you especially is children are involved. The interests of a child are paramount and the court may not look favourably on a person who trashes their spouse or child etc and your pictures online.
2. Using your children as pawns.
Along similar lines, it is imperative to remember that you are parents first.  Refrain from Coaching a child to tell lies about a spouse in a custody battle for example, with backfire in the long run, in court and even worse hurt the child. The court treats the interests of the child as paramount and will accordingly act in their best interest.
3. Failing to DiscloseThe courts in Jamaica do not treat divorces frivously. Accordingly, in seeking a divorce it is important to disclose the truth to the Attorney, any assets you may have jointly, and the reasons that you are seeking a divorce as these grounds need to be substantial.
