Toxic Ties: co-parenting complexities

from MindCircles · host Patricia Elliot

This is the final and 4th episode in a series of 4 on dealing with toxic or narcissistic individuals. I call this episode Toxic Ties: Co-parenting with a manipulative ex partner and Protecting your Peace. I recommend that you listen to the previous 3 episodes where my quick tip when dealing with toxic peope is to RUN, RUN, RUN. However, this is not always possible if in a co-parenting situation where my best advice is to dis-engage. I talk about the patterns you might notice and share 6 strategies when you are in a toxic situation, such as co-parenting (learn what parallel parenting means). Your goal is to free yourself from the toxic person's emotional grip and build a life where your child or children see what healthy love and boundaries look like. Thank you for listening. Remember to smile and laugh, they cost you nothing. Virtual hugs to you all.
