After a breakup, your relationship with your ex may be over—but your shared responsibility as parents continues. And how you handle that ongoing relationship can significantly impact your children’s emotional health.
Research has shown that ongoing parental conflict is one of the most damaging experiences a child can endure. When kids are exposed to frequent arguments, emotional tension, or being caught in the middle, they are more likely to develop issues with anxiety, depression, and difficulty forming healthy relationships later in life.
That’s why understanding and selecting the right parenting style isn’t just a logistical decision—it’s a crucial act of care for your children’s mental and emotional well-being.
