Episode Description
The call has been going for three minutes. Your five-year-old is already looking off-screen at something in the room. You ask another question. They answer in one word. You ask another. They wander off entirely and the phone is now showing the ceiling. On the other end, you're left talking to a light fixture, wondering what you did wrong.
In this episode of CoParentSpace we get practical about video calls that work, by age — what actually helps for separated and divorced parents, and why — grounded in attachment science and clinical research.
What we cover:
• The under-twos: presence, not conversation
• The three-to-fives: do something they can watch
• The six-to-nines: now the conversation works
• The ten-to-thirteens: respect the shrinking window
• The teens: be available, don't chase
• What every age shares
