Co-Parenting with a Narcissist

Heal from Narcissistic Abuse, Set Boundaries, Protect Your Kids, and Take Back Your Peace and Power

De: Talia Thorne

Narrado por: Arielle Crestwood

Does your ex turn every custody exchange into a battlefield? Do you feel like you're going crazy because no one else sees what you're dealing with?

You're not imagining it. You're co-parenting with a narcissist, and everything you've tried hasn't worked because traditional co-parenting advice assumes both parents are reasonable. Yours isn't.

This book is different. It doesn't tell you to "communicate better" or "put the kids first"—you're already doing that. It tells you the hard truth: co-parenting with a narcissist is impossible. But parallel parenting can save you.

This Book Is Your Survival Manual If:

Your ex violates custody orders constantly with no consequences. Simple scheduling questions explode into hours-long text battles. Your children return from visits withdrawn, anxious, or suddenly hostile toward you. The court system treats you like you're equally responsible for the conflict. Well-meaning people keep telling you to "just let it go" when letting go means abandoning your kids to manipulation.

What You'll Discover Inside:

• The parallel parenting strategy that creates maximum distance and minimum conflict when traditional co-parenting is impossible.

• The BIFF communication method that protects you from manipulation while creating documentation that holds up in court.

• How to recognize and survive parental alienation before it completely destroys your relationship with your children—and what to do when it's already happening.

• Court strategies that actually work when you're fighting someone who lies under oath and charms judges effortlessly.

• Boundary-setting techniques that hold firm even when the narcissist tests them constantly, without requiring their cooperation to function.

• The Gray Rock method and why being deliberately boring is your most powerful defense against someone who feeds on your reactions.
