When Parents Give You The Silent Treatment with Abbey Williams
Manage episode 410212759 series 3545275
This week on the Calling Home Podcast, Whitney Goodman speaks with therapist Abbey Williams. They discuss her estrangement from her mother due to the latter's use of the silent treatment as a form of discipline. Williams explains that this behavior, often driven by unprocessed trauma, emotional immaturity, shame, or a desire for control, can be as damaging as physical abuse. Despite the pain of estrangement, Williams has used her experience to better parent her own children and break the generational cycle of dysfunction.
