Take control of parenting your child

My best friend has been struggling with her son’s father, who manipulates her through their child. I told her about this book because it explains narcissistic behavior and offers clear steps to protect yourself and your kids. The THRIVERS method helps take back control, set boundaries, and handle legal issues like custody and support. It’s practical and could really help anyone dealing with a toxic co-parent.

Co-parenting with a difficult ex felt impossible until I listened to this audiobook. The advice on boundary-setting and managing tricky communication has been invaluable.

No more walking on eggshells!

This is a terrific help when dealing with a selfish, controlling partner. Raising a child in that environment is stressful and a daily struggle. This book will guide you to take back control of your life by setting and enforcing boundaries. Manipulation in any form is unhealthy for both partners and children. Also addressed are legal issues -like custody and child support.

Solid Approaches to Teamwork

It really felt like this might be a lifeline for trying to work out the incredibly difficult dynamic at play. The straightforward advice in setting boundaries and steering them towards the children's needs resonated and felt at least actionable. Most importantly, this was the one piece of material that actually listened without leaving me feeling worse—it validates without feeling weighted in reality, while also keeping empowerment intact. While some parts could use a little more depth, the overall tone is practical and compassionate. If you're dealing with a difficult co-parent, this guide offers tools and hope to help you stay grounded and protect your kids' emotional health.
