Abstract
Children in divorced families benefit from meaningful contact with both parents. Currently, there are few technologies that effectively support distributed contact between parents and children. This work presents the results of interviews with 10 parents and 5 children from divorced families to better understand the challenges and needs of this group.Keywords
