What happens when love isn’t just between two people, but also involves kids, exes, and emotional tug-of-wars? In this episode of In Session, Dr. Gabrielle and Charice unpack the layers of being in a relationship where one partner has children from a previous relationship.  

We’ll talk about:

• The balancing act between being a responsible parent and a present partner
• How to recognize manipulation from an ex without getting sucked into chaos 
• The difference between co-parenting, counter-parenting, and control 
• What it means to set boundaries when your partner’s “outside life” keeps spilling inside your home 
• And how the “new partner” can keep from becoming collateral damage while still supporting the kids.

Whether you’re the parent, the partner, or the ex — this one’s going to hit close to home.
