Scenario

When your parent criticizes your partner and you're caught in the middle

My mom keeps calling me to complain about my partner and my partner is starting to notice and ask why I don't stand up for them. I keep thinking I can manage both relationships separately but it's becoming obvious that my silence is a choice that's affecting everyone.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The attempt to keep peace by avoiding confrontation is actually creating deeper conflict in both relationships.
