"the WHY" CO-PARENTING CONVOS WITH DREWSKI & KEV KING

To text or not to text? In Part 2, we dig into the real-world question every co-parent faces: what's the best way to communicate with your ex? We weigh texting against calling, explain why co-parenting apps can cut down on conflict and build accountability, and share practical ways to reply without escalating: pause, draft, and keep it brief. We also talk about how kids absorb parental conflict even when it happens remotely, and how it shows up in their behavior and at school. We look at what healthy co-parenting communication and boundaries look like, what happens when communication turns into control and kids get used as leverage, and how accountability and recognizing your triggers can break unhealthy patterns. Most of all, we focus on what you can control and what your child needs most. Plus closing reflections, a few laughs, and our sign-off.

In this episode of The Why: Co-Parenting Convos with Drewski & Kev King, CeCe tells the story of her family background, why her marriage ended, and what it's like to start co-parenting with an ex who can't let go. We talk about how conflict and control affect the kids, what healthy co-parenting needs from both parents, and why children's feelings have to be heard during a separation. CeCe also shares how she rebuilt herself after the breakup, how to fight for parental involvement without ego or revenge, and how to give kids stable, safe homes. Her final advice: heal yourself first so you can co-parent well.
