How to Effectively Co-Parent with A High-Conflict Ex; with Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq.

The Moving On Method® Podcast - Un pódcast de Michelle Dempsey-Multack - Lunes

Co-parenting with a high-conflict ex is not easy, but it can be done. We know that one reasonable co-parent can make a positive difference in the lives of the children who are being co-parented by one high-conflict parent, but that doesn't make dealing with it any easier. High-conflict co-parenting can make life incredibly stressful and full of unnecessary tension, which in-turn, rubs off on the kids. "The key is realizing we have to take a different approach. The secret to managing a high-conflict personality is managing your own anxiety," Bill Eddy says on this episode of Moms Moving On, and on this third visit to our show, Bill shares the secrets and strategies for how to effectively co-parenting with a high-conflict ex, and shares the "4 forget about its," that you definitely need to hear! "As early as possible you want to learn how to separate dealing with your ex or ex-to-be from getting your needs met emotionally. Don't keep trying to get it from the person who can't give it to you." Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq. is High Conflict Institute's co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer.
