We are experiencing more bullying, incivility, disrespect and even more relationship violence between us at home, at work, in our communities and in the news than at any time in America's history. And, it seems to be increasing rather than decreasing.This book is a warning to voters and politicians that current poliarizations risks long-term harm to our nation. This book compares the same 5 traits of high-conflict divorces to today's politics. The High-Conflict Politician Score Card is included! The authors note that the kind of negative behavior we are seeing in politics increases conflict rather than reducing or resolving it. What's worse, it's like a virus, infecting others who are exposed to it, leading the rest of us to act it he same manner. Authors Don Saposnek and Bill Eddy hope their book will help change the destructive direction in which our country seems to be headed. They want us to avoid the "nasty divorce" that would hurt our nation and strive instead to seek common ground and understanding. After all, we are the American Family. Splitting America is for anyone who is disturbed by the current political situation and wants to do something about it!
