7 Skills You Need to Communicate Effectively w/ Your Kids for Alienated Parents | Ep. 176

Описание: Are your kids pushing you away? Learn the 7 essential communication skills that help alienated parents rebuild trust and create safety—even when your child seems unreachable. These aren't magic wands, but they work by helping you to show up with intention as the supportive and loving parent you are and want to be.

⭐️ Main Talking Points ⭐️

1. Emotional Regulation is Foundation
Your child is already tasked with regulating the other parent's emotions. When you show up regulated, you become their safe harbor instead of another person they need to manage.

2. Empathy Over Explanation
Stop trying to get them to see your side. Your job is to provide for them, not convince them. Their rudeness is an act of loyalty to the other parent, not a personal attack on you.

3. Confidence Without Dominance
Stand in your worth quietly. When you plead or overexplain, you accidentally reinforce the distorted dynamic where they feel in charge.

4. Curiosity Communicates Care
Ask open-ended, low-pressure questions. Show fascination in their world without demanding closeness on your timeline.

5. Short Memory, Huge Heart
Don't carry grudges into each interaction. Reset daily. Refuse to let every reaction be filtered through past hurt.

6. Enforceable Language
Focus on what YOU will do, not what you're trying to control. "I drive kids who are on time. I'll be leaving at 7:45" instead of "You have to be ready."

7. Consistency Equals Safety
Show up the same way again and again. Your consistency is the container that holds all the other skills.

✅ Key Takeaways ✅

✓ Children in alienation are operating in survival mode - Logic, debate, and proving your case will almost always backfire.
✓ Separate feelings from thoughts - Teach your child the difference: "I would also feel angry if I believed that my parent didn't love me" acknowledges their emotion without endorsing the false narrative.
✓ You're playing the long game - They ARE tracking that you're still showing up, even if they don't show it. Trust doesn't rebuild overnight.
✓ Self-respect teaches respect - If you're craving something from your child, look at how you can supply that for yourself first.
✓ Consistency over perfection - It's not about being perfect; it's about showing up in a similar way again and again.
✓ These are developable skills - None of this is a character flaw. These are skills you can practice and improve.
