Calm Contact: The High-Conflict Co-Parenting Toolkit

Every message turns into an argument. Every handover feels like a trap. And the children are stuck in the middle.

You can't control the other parent. You can control your side. Calm Contact gives you the tools to do it.

Inside:

• 30 ready-to-use reply templates for changes, handovers, school, health, money, accusations, holidays and new partners

• Before and after examples showing the reply that feeds it, and the calm one that ends it

• Handover scripts: what to say at the door, to your child, and when it goes wrong

• A fillable parallel parenting plan covering schedule, holidays, school, health, money, travel and communication

• How to talk to your children, with guidance by age

• Contact, messages, child costs and wellbeing logs

• Where to get help
