Generally Stonewalling Jacksonass (Season 1)

Stonewalling is a term that was developed by psychologist Dr. John Gottman, who specializes in relationship research and therapy. Stonewalling is when a person withdraws from a conversation or discussion and refuses to acknowledge you or your efforts to discuss anything, ignore your requests, respond with dismissive, invalidating replies or giving infuriatingly vague responses. Parents who are controlling, combative and dismissive use stonewalling as a way of marginalizing a child.

In October of 1957, I was born to the double, trouble of two toxic parents. These podcasts are triggering, validating and healing. They spark forgotten memories of childhood fear and hurt which helps me process the emotions I was not allowed to have. . The music and comedic banter help me to laugh and remember to breathe. Tammy’s childhood experiences and feelings closely mimic
the fear, confusion, doubt and pain I experienced growing up. I was already reading self help books at thirteen and tried to get my parents to come for family counseling at seventeen years old. Of course, they refused. Also helpful are the mention of books, study results, your personal takeaways and how they helped you. I loved your Thanksgiving song, “I hate my f-ing family”. A good deep belly, laugh out loud moment.
I want to hear everything you have to say. 🙏❤️😊

Y’all are hilarious! Humor is so important when dealing with these topics. I can’t tell you how many times I have laughed at my toxic parents through the years and I did not feel badly either!

Loved the song ! See y’all next time. 😍
