249. Five Tips for Co-Parenting with a Toxic Ex

You’ve tried being easy-going and flexible, and you’ve tried being clear and firm, but nothing has worked when it comes to co-parenting with your ex, and I can tell you why: You’re trying to do the impossible. If your ex is narcissistic, abusive, controlling, rageful, or in some other way toxic, your efforts at any reasonable co-parenting will be thwarted.

Today I’m going to teach you all about the differences between co-parenting and parallel parenting and my top five tips for creating as much peace as possible. ____________________________ Full blog and show notes: https://abbymedcalf.com/five-tips-for-co-parenting-with-a-toxic-ex Grab my FREE Mindfulness Starter Kit: https://abbymedcalf.com/product/mindfulness-starter-kit/ Check out my YouTube Channel for actionable tips and tools to help you find more ease, joy, and happiness in your life and relationships! https://abbymedcalf.com/youtube ____________________________ Want to feel happier and more connected in your relationship?
