Roland & Carol, one of the couples in the documentary, have been married 13 years and have two kids. Roland is seeking 50/50 custody during their do-it-yourself divorce process.
If you or someone you know is going through a separation or divorce you may want to check out this hour-long documentary at 8 p.m. tonight.
How to Divorce & Not Wreck the Kids follows three families as they attempt to part in ways that they believe will be best for their children. Each family tries a different method for settling their affairs; one family goes through separate negotiations and then relies on a mediator, another uses a do-it-yourself divorce kit and the third tries a new process called collaborative divorce, in which parents work together, simultaneously to sort things out.
