  • Episode 293 High Conflict Co-Parenting Combating Harassment and Abuse An Interview with Talking Parents
    Jul 19 2024

    In this episode Brook Olsen and Kelli Avallone Join the Talking Parents team on their Co-Parenting and Coffee webinar to discuss Parallel Parenting and the use of Co-Parenting Apps. During High Conflict Co-Parenting and dealing with Narcissism and other personality disorders the use of Co-Parenting Apps like Talking Parents can be a useful tool in getting the conflict under control and tracking the conversation between parents. The use of such apps can all so help when going to court to show the level of conflict and who is in may ways causing the conflict to continue. This is a rich conversation that I think will help listeners understand the value in using these tools. Enjoy!!!
