Grey Rock & Roll (Season 3)

Grey rock is a tool to prevent toxic people from creating drama, "pushing your buttons" and stressing you out—three things toxic parents love to do. By acting as boring, uninteresting, and unengaged as possible, the grey rock method discourages the toxic person, and they’ll often seek out a more exciting target for their manipulative behavior. The best way to deal with a toxic parent is to change our response to them. Toxic people crave excitement and drama, so be the most boring person you’ve ever met.

Very, very good!

OMG perfect timing for me. I’ve shared the story of my mana here before so I won’t repeat it. I heard you speak about Gray Rock here before and like LW’s sister I can’t get to this place. One week ago my mama (92) and I had the worst confrontation of my life. I was jerking all over and thought I was having a heart attack. Since July 8 my dad(almost 93) has been in the hospital for procedures and surgery or rehab and my low contact is non existent. Some days I’m at their house 3-4 times a day! Gray Rock is my only way out! I should listen to this one everyday until I can do this. Please continue this topic in another podcast.

Thank you both so very much and it’s great to have you back!!
