Three English couples facing a permanent split embark on an emotional journey with expert Texan divorce coach, Christina McGhee. It is a last-ditch effort to minimise the emotional impact on their young children, who are already struggling to cope with their parents' decision to separate. Meeting with Christina is a chance for the parents to learn how to co-parent effectively before they inflict further harm upon their kids. She teaches couples what 'putting children first' really means. They must learn to put aside their anger and bitterness and concentrate solely on the needs of their children. For the kids, the intervention of a divorce coach represents the first opportunity to articulate their true feelings on their families' break up as they realise that they are not alone. Parenting classes and individual sessions prove an emotionally gruelling process for everyone; but even more of a test when, back in England, each family tries to put Christina's rules into practice.
