Part of you wants for the kids to know the truth, because you know that you're on the side of truth. But at the same time, we do need to be honest with our kids. And you can be honest in an age-appropriate way.
Parenting is tough enough without having to co-parent with someone toxic. In this episode of SNAP, Mandy Friedman, a licensed professional clinical counselor and certified domestic violence expert, tackles the tricky terrain of co-parenting with a toxic ex-partner. Mandy dives into practical strategies like using family communication apps to keep interactions clear and documented.
She also stresses the importance of being honest with your kids in ways they can understand and creating safe spaces where they feel free to express their feelings. Mandy doesn't shy away from discussing the emotional toll single parenting can take, highlighting the need for empathy and intuition in these challenging situations. Through her SNAP program, Mandy empowers survivors of abusive relationships to reconnect with their empathic nature, which abusers often try to destroy.
If you're struggling with co-parenting challenges, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable advice to help you find balance and strength.
