Mayim Bialik Gives Divorce Details in Blog Posts to Share Knowledge

Mayim Bialik has stirred up controversy in the past for her unique attachment parenting views and now she has critics questioning her decision to blog about her divorce.

The "Big Bang Theory" star authored a series of blog posts earlier this summer on the Jewish parenting site Kveller about her recent divorce from Michael Stone, her husband of nearly 10 years.

"I wanted to write about some of the more complicated aspects," Bialik told Access Hollywood this week. "And specifically, also, there's certain things [related] to Jewish divorce that people don't know about."

For example, one post is titled, "How Many Shabbat Candles Does a Divorced Woman Light?" Another is about how a divorce is handled in the Jewish faith.

"There's something called a 'Get,'" she told Access Hollywood. "There's a religious process. You sit in the same room and you watch your divorce deed be written. It's actually a very interesting thousand-year-old document that you watch written and you have to be in the same room as your ex. To me, it was a very cathartic, very emotionally powerful sense of closure for us."

Bialik and Stone finalized their divorce in May and have been working together to raise their two sons.

"The main priority for us now is to make the transition to two loving homes as smooth and painless as possible," she wrote in a blog post. "Our sons deserve parents committed to their growth and health and that's what we are focusing on. Our privacy has always been important and is even more so now, and we thank you in advance for respecting it as we negotiate this new terrain. We will be ok."

Bialik, who holds a doctoral degree in neuroscience from UCLA, rose to fame in the '80s and '90s, most notably as the title character in the sitcom "Blossom."
