"Open communication.""All matters involving the child.""No restrictions on frequency or method."Sounds cooperative, right? Like you're being a good co-parent? Bullshit.In this episode, I'm breaking down how vague communication clauses turn you into your ex's secretary, and your high-conflict ex knows exactly what they're doing.They're training you like a dog. Text. Respond. Text. Respond. Call during your parenting time. Answer. Call during your date night. Answer. Because if you don't? You're a "bad co-parent."And that threat—"I'm taking you back to court"—keeps you answering. Even when it's the 16th message today. Even when you're at work. Even when the kids are with THEM and you're trying to have a fucking life.The clauses that wreck your life:"Open communication regarding all matters" (lost tooth? Bad dream? Scraped knee? Now you're reporting everything)"Communicate directly about issues concerning the child" (what's an "issue"? Everything becomes one)"No restrictions on frequency or method" (they can call, text, FaceTime, stop by—whenever they want) Your time with your kids is sacred. Your ex doesn't get unlimited access to you just because you share children.Stop being their on-call secretary.The Parenting Plan Masterclass shows you how to set actual boundaries: define platforms (app only, no phone calls), set business hours, clarify what counts as an emergency, and build in response time limits—so "open communication" never means unlimited harassment.Set boundaries that stick: Parenting Plan Masterclass.Communication needs rules. Build them in.Here’s What You Can Actually Take Away: "Open communication" is a myth in high-conflict co-parenting — It assumes cooperation that doesn't exist. Without boundaries, it becomes unlimited access and constant harassment. High-conflict exes train you like a dog — Text. Respond. Text. Respond. The threat of "bad co-parent" or "I'll take you back to court" keeps you complying. "All matters" means you become their secretary — Lost tooth? Scraped knee? Bad dream? You're reporting everything while they share nothing. Oversharing backfires — Every positive thing you share gets torn apart and used as ammunition. Your kids watch you stop everything to answer. "No restrictions on frequency or method" = unlimited control — They can call, text, FaceTime, stop by whenever they want. Your time isn't protected. Reciprocation doesn't exist — You're expected to communicate everything. They share nothing. "My house, my rules" only applies to them. Communication needs business hours — Define platform (app only), response times (24-48 hours), emergency definitions, and off-limits times. Your parenting time is sacred — When the kids are with you, there's no emergency. They're safe. Your ex doesn't need access to you during your time.The Truth Bombs"High-conflict exes are training you like a dog. Here's a treat, bring it back. Here's another toy, bring it back. They're shocking you to come back to them.""'Open communication regarding all matters involving the child'—that means lost tooth, bad dream, scraped knee. Now you're their secretary reporting every fucking detail.""I sent a video of my daughter mowing the lawn—perfect stripes, zero-point turn. First response? 'Why is she wearing shorts instead of pants?' That's what oversharing gets you.""'No restrictions on frequency or method'—they can call during your date night, FaceTime during dinner with your kids, stop by whenever. Your parenting plan just gave them unlimited access.""You overshare because they say 'you're a bad co-parent.' So you answer the 16th message today even though you just spent $80,000 in court and can't go back.""They don't share shit about their house. 'My time, my rules.' But you're expected to report everything? That's not co-parenting. That's control.""Your time with your kids is sacred. When they're with you, there's no emergency. You see them, they're safe. Your ex doesn't need access to you.""Parenting plans need business hours. Opening hours, closing hours. My time with the kids? Closed. No emergency here. I'll get back to you when my plan says I have to."Follow Samantha BossWebsiteFacebookInstagramTikTokLinkedInYouTube
