Five divorced parents were interviewed in the research. Based on their experiences of using family mediation service, the research outlines the nature of family mediation, including the changes and difficulties they have encountered during the process, as well as their thoughts and suggestions to family mediation service. The results indicated that the mediator has helped divorced parents to calmly discuss their parenting plan; facilitated to retain the parent-child relationship after divorce; mitigated the conflicts from both sides; provided adequate professional information and further protected minor children's rights and interests. Finally, it is recommended that the following considerations can be taken in the near future, such as lower the threshold of offering mediation service; finding suitable timing to provide mediation service and assisting the facilitation of mediation agreement. It was also suggested that the local authority should advocate the policies of developing mediation service within the community; proposing further recruitment in family mediation service; carrying out pre-marriage education and supplying parenting education for divorced parents.
