When To Put Your Child First In Toxic Co-Parenting | Abusive Ex, Stepmom Drama & Hard Boundaries S3 Ep47

Disclaimer: We are not professionals. This podcast is opinioned based and from life experience. This is for entertainment purposes only. Opinions helped by our guests may not reflect our own. But we love a good conversation.

In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, we unpack a raw email from a mom asking, “At what point do I put my son first?” We walk through her full story, from being a young woman ignoring red flags and leaving home for an abusive relationship, to getting pregnant, surviving narcissistic and controlling behavior, and finally trying to co-parent with a toxic ex. We talk about trauma, your nervous system, epigenetics, how pregnancy stress impacts your baby, and why honoring the old version of yourself matters while still owning every choice you made. You’ll hear us break down nervous system overload, abuse cycles, emotional manipulation, and why self-respect and standards are non-negotiable if you want a healthy relationship and a stable home for your kids.
We also dive deep into high-conflict co-parenting: abusive step-parents, a stepmom demanding to be called “mom,” kids witnessing yelling, name-calling and physical outbursts, and what to do when your child no longer wants to be at the other parent’s house. We talk about 50/50 custody, when to go back to court, setting hard boundaries, supervised visits, and how to protect your child without using them as a weapon. If you’re dealing with a toxic co-parent, abusive ex, unstable step-parent, ADHD kids struggling in chaos, or you’re a mom or dad trying to figure out when your child’s safety and mental health must come before “keeping the peace,” this conversation will hit home and give you clear, practical language and perspective to move forward.
