Great book for anyone coparenting

As someone who deals with a difficult ex and has children with them, this book really hit home. As the book mentions, the kids should be the forefront of interactions. And, if that’s not the case for your relationship, this book offers some very helpful and practical strategies.

I can’t wait to give some of the advice in this book a try. The authors empathy and understanding of the situations some of us face truly makes me feel supported.

Even if you don’t have a difficult relationship I recommend this book anyways. Because the strategies in the book help to establish an environment where your kids will thrive and grow up emotionally secure.

New method for parenting peacefully when you have no peace

This book was an eye opener for me. I learned a lot about parallel parenting and creating happier parents. Parents that can get through communication and interaction without fighting is a win for everyone. Happy parents, happy child. When dealing with a narcissistic parent it is hard to do things that way they like. So parallel parenting comes in to save the day. It may take time to adjust to 2 different set of rules from 2 different houses, but it prevents conflicts. I love the tips like using an app to document conversations and interactions. It shows proof of everything you do as a parent or partner. This book gives practical advice and tips every parent needs when dealing with a narcissist. It's nice to know that help is out there for those dealing with this emotional topic.
