Whether court-ordered for divorce, paternity, or custody, or referred by a caseworker or judge, our Co-Parenting and Parenting Classes meet every court and agency requirement.

Of the more than 1,000,000 parents who have enrolled with Putting Kids First, an estimated 14,529 are Missouri parents.

Missouri requires both parents to complete a parenting class in divorce and legal separation cases involving minor children under RSMo § 452.372. The statute uses mandatory language, directing courts to order all parties to attend educational sessions pursuant to RSMo § 452.605. This requirement applies to divorce, legal separation, and postjudgment proceedings involving custody or support.

Our class covers Missouri's required topics: the effects of family separation on minor children, benefits of alternative dispute resolution including mediation, and the effects of custody changes on children as specified in RSMo §§ 452.600 and 452.605. Online completion is approved across Missouri circuits.

Both parents must complete the class, with costs paid in proportion to their respective incomes per RSMo § 452.610. You'll receive an instant verifiable certificate upon completion that meets Missouri's statutory requirements.

Missouri circuit courts establish educational programs by local rule or designate providers under RSMo § 452.600. The statute mandates attendance, and individual circuits set specific hour requirements.

Parents Trust. Courts Approve.

I dreaded starting this for weeks, then knocked it out in two sittings. Wish I had known how painless it would be, would have saved myself weeks of worrying.

Jennifer M.

Lafayette County, Missouri

A copy went straight to my attorney without me lifting a finger, and she said it was all set. Honestly the smoothest part of this whole process.

David R.

St. Louis County, Missouri

This class made me look at things through my kids' eyes for the first time since the split, and that changed how I handle the hard days. Glad it was required because I would not have done it on my own.
