Family conflicts can often be resolved peacefully, without the need for court proceedings, which brings numerous advantages. This approach, known as family mediation and mandatory counseling, allows family members to collaboratively find solutions in a more relaxed environment, reducing stress levels and avoiding lengthy and emotionally exhausting court processes. Through mediation, families create solutions tailored to their specific needs, which contributes to more stable and sustainable relationships in the long run. Mandatory counseling and family mediation play a crucial role in matters of parental care, especially during divorce, as they reduce stress and socio-emotional issues for both partners and their children. Experts believe that children should not be involved in decision-making but should be informed according to their age. In these processes, social workers assist parties in reaching a mutual agreement, ensuring that decisions are made in the best interest of the child, informing them of their rights and obligations, and encouraging participation. Mandatory counseling, introduced by the new Family Law Act in 2015, represents a significant step towards better support for families in crisis situations, particularly when there are shared minor children involved. Members of the professional team play a key role in informing parties about the legal and psychosocial consequences of court proceedings, as well as the benefits of amicable resolution of family relationships. Additionally, there is a need for further education for parents on the importance of including children in processes that concern their rights and interests, as involving children's voices can contribute to a better understanding of their needs and reduce stress during family conflicts. These conclusions emphasize the importance of an integrated approach to resolving family disputes and ensuring a more stable environment for children.
