Publisher's Summary

There's no question about it: your children are the most important thing in your life. But if you have gone through a messy divorce, your relationship with your children may become strained if you have to deal with a toxic ex. Your ex may bad-mouth you in front of the kids, accuse you of being a bad parent, and even attempt to replace you in the children's lives with a new partner. As a result, your children may become confused, conflicted, angry, anxious, or depressed - and you may feel powerless.

In Co-Parenting with a Toxic Ex, a nationally recognized parenting expert offers you a positive parenting approach to dealing with a hostile ex-spouse. You'll learn to avoid the most common mistakes of co-parenting, how to avoid "parental alienation syndrome", and effective techniques for talking to your children in a way that fosters an open and honest response. In addition, you'll learn how to protect your children from painful loyalty conflicts between you and your ex-spouse.

A must read for anyone in this situation

Even if you only suspect the title of this book is relevant your situation, I highly recommend you read it. Not a nice topic, but vital you understand just what you're up against.

Frustrating

I'm currently living with my ex husband. Separated under one roof in Covid Lockdown. Did anyone consider how the listeners would be feeling when listening to the audiobook??? Nup. The listeners are probably suffering emotional and psychological abuse yet the narrator is lecturing hard and fast. EI anyone ?? I am tearing my hair out listening to this audiobook. There are no chapter descriptions so you find yourself forced to listen to what the narrator is shoving down your ears whether you want to or not. Hoping that the next chapter will be more fruitful.... What's the next subject called? Chapter 6. That is all. Literally.
