If you are in a toxic relationship with your partner AND you are a parent, you relationship is not only affecting your partnership, but it also affects your child.

Growing up, I lived in a house with a couple of parents in a toxic relationship. I recognize that it was toxic because of this five-point list. The interesting thing is that I also realized that I identified with these points also as a child.

Take a look at this. Does it speak to you? If so, you may be in a toxic relationship. If you are a parent, consider that your child may also be feeling this way. If that’s the case, you need to do something about it, if not just for you and your partner, do it for your child!
