A 90-day protocol for co-parents breaking ties with an ex starts with 30 days of hard boundaries: text or email only, no personal talk, block them on social media, delete old messages, and never let them linger at drop-off.
I call it. The 90 day door lock protocol is specifically designed for early chasers who are co parenting with the person they need to release. Phase one is boundaries. This is days one through 30. For the first 30 days, we're building the wall. Here's your co parenting rules. Text or email only. No calls unless emergency. Strictly logistical Pickups Schedules Child related Only the personal conversations. If he goes personal, you if he goes personal, you redirect. That's not something I'm discussing. Let's keep this about your child's name. Digital boundaries Block or meet him on social media. Delete old texts and photos. You don't need to reread the past though, checking his profile, his stories, or his life. Physical boundaries no hanging out during exchanges. Drop off and go. No inviting him in just for a minute.
