👩👧👦 Parenting & Children
Being a parent while surviving abuse—or after escaping it—comes with an entirely different kind of heartbreak and courage. You’re not just trying to protect yourself; you’re trying to shield your children, help them heal, and somehow give them a sense of normal when everything feels upside down.
You may be battling a manipulative co-parent. You may be comforting children who are confused, angry, or scared. You may feel like you’re failing them, even when you’re doing everything you possibly can. Let us remind you: showing up with love, consistency, and truth makes you the safe parent—and that matters more than anything.
This section is here to help you:
- Understand how abuse impacts children
- Navigate parenting through trauma—yours and theirs
- Set healthy boundaries
- Handle co-parenting with an abuser
- Break generational cycles with compassion and strength
You’re not a perfect parent—but you’re a present, loving one.
And that makes all the difference.
