Badass Breakthrough with Bridget Bennett

Stop Forcing Your Kids to Call Their Other Parent


Listen Later

Phone calls with your high-conflict ex shouldn't feel like a battlefield, but when every call becomes a power play, it's not about connection anymore. It's about control.


If your child dreads the scheduled call, if your ex demands multiple check-ins, or if you're being accused of alienation for not forcing a conversation, this episode will give you the
clarity you need.


In This Episode:
• Why court-ordered phone calls don't mean forcing your child to talk
• How to document call refusals without over-explaining or defending
• The difference between providing access and managing the other parent's emotions
• What to do when your ex withholds communication during their parenting time
• How high-conflict parents use phone calls to maintain control, and how to stop playing the
game
• Why recording your child's calls will backfire in court
• Real strategies for teaching your child autonomy while staying court-compliant


This isn't theory, it's strategy that protects your case and your child.
