Going "No Contact" With Parents

Going “no contact” with a parent means deliberately cutting off all communication with them. It is an extreme boundary set for self-protection.

Were you forced to grow up too fast? If you spent your childhood caring for siblings, managing adult responsibilities, or emotionally supporting a parent, you likely experienced parentification.

If you regret going no contact with your parents, you’re far from alone. Many estranged adult children grapple with guilt, doubt, or sadness after ending a toxic parent relationship.
