I’m the founder of Kids Against Divorce; through which I created The Marriage Education Act; legislation designed to treat a marriage license as most other state issued licenses and require a minimal level of education. The MEA has been discussed on national television news programs as well as in newspapers and on radio shows throughout the country - see video below. I have experienced divorce in all its forms - as a son, a brother, a nephew, an uncle, a husband, a stepfather, and father. While I can’t fix my daughter’s pain, I can work so other kids and adults never experience their heartache and mine. It’s important they are not just two more statistics – two more kids of divorce. That’s my mission! I co-created and co-instruct an honors course at a major midwestern university titled Divorce as a Phenomenon as well as a Difficult Discussions about Divorce Workshop for college students. I also co-developed and co-teach a professional development / continuing education series of five courses for behavioral health professionals on a leading platform. Additionally, I co-created Divorce As a Course, a community of educators with a shared goal of seeing divorce taught at every college and university. My first novel, Without A Chair, is available. Guilty of Innocence, the sequel to Without a Chair, will be out in 2026. My latest project, GETWED, a socially responsible partnership between Engaged Couples, Marriage Education Providers & Wedding Vendors is in development and scheduled to launch soon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/ca4e12b4-29da-4ab8-b38b-d60fd8fb12d5/GOI+Thumbnail+Cropped.png Home - Without A Chair, the prequel, had a controversial ending, without which there really was no book… Rather, it would’ve been just another divorce story, most of which share so many similar themes, sadly they can be called stereotypical. It’s hard to understand Gil’s out of the ordinary decisions at the end. Perhaps, because they weren’t so much a choice as they were a manifestation of decades of trauma etched so deep that Gil really wasn’t left with an alternative, at least in his mind. Gil’s tale is burdensome and cautionary, however it’s the onerous story which illustrates the divorce experience. It’s the noxious memoir that provides the teaching moment. Pausing to notice this is difficult. Current culture demands victims not be victims such that we’re overly tolerant of bad behavior. We expect and believe everyone will have a second, third or fourth act. Gil Belmont, didn’t! Scarred for life, a term too often callously thrown about, really meant a permanent change had occurred. Still, there was a price to pay, with no way to pay it and a life to live, with no way to live it. A cause to care about keeps Gil moving, though a secret with no way to share it, can undo everything any moment. What transpires next in this gripping saga only happens when someone’s….

Parts of culture were damaged. Accomplishments in the first half of the twentieth century set the stage for much needed progress in the later nineteen hundreds. As too often happens though in social change, a course correction turns into a pendulum swing and the subsequent overcorrection yields unintended consequences such that the initial problem is simply replaced with a new one. While the divorce revolution produced positive outcomes, the large-scale problems in marriage were replaced with the various problems of large-scale divorce. Modern media, which both mirrors and molds society, has exacerbated this by treating the tragedy of divorce as entertainment. Our culture needs to change… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/e62a7b9c-baaf-47d0-b5c8-e2a37deb6c30/mega4.jpeg Kids Against Divorce - PASSION It can be said every person in America is affected by DIVORCE, a dysfunction that has become normal in the timeline of life. You generally don’t have to go beyond yourself, your parents, kids, siblings, or close friends & co-workers to have been affected by it. Just as drunk driving had always occurred in great numbers until one mother said “Enough!” divorce is occurring in overwhelming numbers, and now, one father has said “Enough!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/c1f29706-3397-4459-9e51-bd3198216bba/mega5.jpeg Kids Against Divorce - BELIEF Kids Against Divorce is not anti-divorce, per se. We will never have a zero percent divorce rate. That’s not reality. There are a certain number of marriages that need to end. In a healthy society, that number would be a tiny percentage. A far cry from where we are. Divorce is a very sensitive subject. It is difficult to make concrete statements regarding the issue of divorce because it’s extremely personal and emotionally driven. Every marriage has a combination of dynamics, which can create gray areas that make divorce seem justifiable. Truth be told, the only reason divorce is absolutely justifiable is domestic violence. This criminal behavior should never be tolerated! Most problematic marriages can be saved. Whether they will be is a different story. It requires two willing and wanting people. It requires a change in culture… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/8e8efff4-5abf-4d71-b0f8-3f56f88e35ab/rev2.jpeg Kids Against Divorce - GUIDING PRINCIPLE People of all ages make statements regarding divorce that tend to be relative to the disaster of divorce itself. When someone says, “It’s better for the kids to see us divorced than to see us unhappy together“ or “I am glad my parents got divorced because they’re happier now,” these statements are about the parent’s level of happiness post-divorce. None of these rationalizations are comparable to the level of happiness the kids would have achieved had their parents fixed and continued in their marriage. There are always couples with bigger problems, whose marriages survive, just as there are couples with smaller problems whose marriages fail. It’s not about what your problems are. It’s about who you are and how you resolve problems… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/fa809593-481b-4654-8cbc-e65d493344e6/TA_logo.jpg Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/1f42b2af-09da-49fa-be94-ea2cdac6d35d/Living_Monument_This_Forest_1500.png Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/77cbda27-402f-4f81-824a-51b8f1ae2475/Logo+with+Background+1000+x+200.png Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/47648e85-0f32-4587-b2f7-cea4b0e056dd/KADvent+15+Header.png Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/2a1ad7d6-4de0-4de7-bc45-b42087e4c886/mirror.jpg Kids Against Divorce - Ours Is a Never Give Up Attitude…. None of our efforts bore the fruit we desired; however, we never threw in the towel because that’s the spirit we hope people have in their marriage. We won’t quit! So, in 2022, as we began our second decade, we found the best course to re-launch The Marriage Education Act as our singular focus and see this through! Two runs at this had been unsuccessful; however, that won’t stand in our way. It only strengthens us! Keeping our focus on The Marriage Education Act is the most efficient way to give children the voice we set out to provide them a decade ago and make the difference we sought!! Yet again, a different approach… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/3a084e0b-1862-48c3-b5f7-34a4f97756fc/MEA+Ver+1000.jpg Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/036b209f-d3b5-42f8-8628-f8844b3ef3b5/PNG1000.png Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/aa9c23c4-1a83-413c-adf3-44d80f04e998/SL+WAC+Foam+Core+Board+Proof.jpg Kids Against Divorce - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.davidschel.com/workshop-main daily 0.75 2022-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/7f278b29-7923-44d5-9cf6-219a66aa6dc6/WAC+WS+Logo.jpg Workshop Main - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/f8139392-aff9-469d-831a-6eb0179faa33/cropped-puzzle-pieces-banner-1.png Workshop Main - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/a96fa44d-86b2-4a9b-bfbd-c932b1db149c/cropped-puzzle-pieces-banner-1.png Workshop Main - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/34dbbc7d-e6b6-4542-b1cb-b31218f6301a/Friends+Module.jpg Workshop Main - Friends Are your friendships based on similarities or dissimilarities?

You will receive a customized certificate directly from The Arbor Day Foundation to acknowledge your gift. A sample of the certificate can be seen below. Also, the names of all of those who have been honored with trees are kept in a registry that can be viewed publicly at arborday.org/registry. Your tree along with others represent the deep and lasting roots that connect us as families, communities, and as stewards of what we’ve been blessed with. Together, let’s create a healthy family tree for all of America’s families!. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/143ed1b8-0930-4928-a0c9-84906a4fe4a3/pooch.png TreeAction - We’re At a Pivotal moment in Time. The seventy, eighty, and ninety year olds who pass on over the next thirty years take with them the last remnants of traditional family values. While not every aspect of this lifestyle is something we might want to hold on to, each new generation is farther and farther away. This is such a trend that it is not far-fetched to consider that marriage will become obsolete within a half-century. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/5a1d0bde-d592-458d-b5e1-4ed549428bb2/AAF1.jpeg TreeAction - Marriage Rates are At an All-time Low… and Trending Lower! While there are vast amounts of people not getting married, in part because of the failure rate over the past forty years, there are still plenty getting married. Our goal is for them to become a more successful group, so then more people will want to become a part of this group again. It’s akin to repopulating a species on the brink of extinction rather than letting it become extinct. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/41c2e919-c128-48e3-b644-498773b2acbf/CFam.jpeg TreeAction - The Future Depends on What We Do Now! Parents married? Parents divorced? Happily married? Unhappily married? Divorced? Remarried? Never married? No matter where you are on the marriage / divorce wheel, you can still change the culture, so that your own children choose to marry one day. Whether marriage exists for your kids / grandkids years from now, or not, depends on us acting now, before it’s too late, to rebuild this part of our nation's infrastructure! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60bf8faa09388a042f1ef9f4/e71d17d1-780a-4d34-b833-c21898aad7d0/tree+grove+scale.jpg TreeAction - Our Goal: One Million Trees.
