"You'll need to leave the emotional baggage here." 🛄

Meet BIFF Security: Brief. Informative. Friendly. Firm. The four things your message to your coparent should be — and the four things it very rarely starts out as.

This is the BIFF Response® — BIFF is developed by High Conflict Institute, co-founded by Bill Eddy — and if you've been in coparenting circles for more than five minutes, you've probably already heard his name. Half the experts we talk to reference his work unprompted.

The idea is simple, the execution is not: strip out "you always," "for the record," and "that's not what happened" — and what's left is usually just... the actual point. Pickup is at 5:00. Thanks.

We talk BIFF (and a lot more) with Bill Eddy himself on the new episode of Coparenting Beyond Conflict. 🎧
