As the adult children of a parent with narcissistic or borderline personality disorder, becoming parents ourselves brings up a whole new set of challenges—especially when it comes to navigating the grandparent-grandchild relationship.
In this episode, I dive into the emotional complexities of setting boundaries with toxic parents while trying to break dysfunctional patterns for our kids.
I’ll cover:
→ How to handle difficult conversations with your children about going no contact
→ The impact of a toxic grandparent’s behavior on your kids—and what to watch for
→ Why your parent might not be the amazing grandparent you think they are
And, if you're struggling with setting (and keeping) boundaries, don’t miss my upcoming FREE Workshop!
