About this listen
In this episode I explore the common parenting struggle of falling into “good cop” and “bad cop” roles—and how this dynamic can quietly shape your teen’s behaviour and emotional safety.
Whether you're always the one saying "no," or you're keeping the peace at all costs, this episode unpacks:
- Why the good/bad cop divide naturally happens (often without you realising)
- The unintended emotional consequences for your teen
- Practical ways to shift the dynamic, even in solo-parent or co-parenting setups
- How to model balance, boundaries, and connection—no matter your parenting style
