218. Should I Tell My Child the Truth About Their Narcissistic/BPD Parent?

If you’re co-parenting with someone who has narcissistic or BPD traits and you’re in a 50/50 custody situation, this podcast is for you.

A listener asked: “My son is 3.5 years old—do I say anything about his mom, or just keep her out of my house entirely?”

In this podcast, I dive into:

• How to talk to a young child about a toxic parent (without causing damage)

• The mistakes I made early in my divorce—and what I’d do differently

• When to speak, what not to say, and how to create emotional safety

• Groundhog Day syndrome and how to stop it

• Why your home must become your child’s emotional anchor

• Tips for neutral transitions, boundaries, and avoiding triangulation

💡 Whether you’re just entering family court or are years into the battle, this podcast will give you grounded, field-tested advice to protect your child—without turning them into the battlefield.
