The Tennessee Parenting Plan Law requires divorcing parents to take a class or a series of classes called the Parenting Education Seminar. Here are some facts about the classes.The Parenting Education Seminar is in place to educate parents on how to deal with each other and with their children during and after divorce proceedings. The purpose of the Seminar is to lessen the emotional impact divorce has on families and make the process easier for children.
The Seminars also include education on these subjects: marriage counseling, alternative dispute resolution, common perpetrator conduct and attitudes involving domestic violence and the judicial process. The impact of divorce on families and other divorce-related topics might also be covered in the Seminars.
