My thoughts on effective co-parenting. It can work

And I was telling this person, I was like, that's just an example of how if you put your personal feelings for your co parent aside, like, put the relationship that you all had, put that on the back burner, because you all don't got it no more, so it don't need to be thought about or talked about, and then just really focus on what's best for your child. You will have a great co parenting relationship and your child will be a lot better

So I thank you for sharing this story, and I'm just giving a big shout out to all the blended families out there or all the people that co parent together, raising children together, well, without, like I said, the animosity and what have you, I think it's great. I think it's great for children to see that

Hi, Tanya. Yeah, there are quite, I mean, I know quite a few people who co parent effectively. I know people who don't, but I know quite a few people who co parent effectively. And really at the center of it, it really is just putting the child and the child's needs and the child's feelings above your own. And both parties have to do that. Right. And then they have to go from there. Them

So I do commend both of you guys for being able to kind of come together and say, no, this is about our child. This is about our daughter. Her needs come first, despite how we may feel about each other

I really like talking to people in their 20s, their early thirty s, because the children, as they get older, they see the back and forth, they see how they're being used as a pawn, and it's not cool. And so I try to help people to navigate the co parenting thing. I even do it with my son and his mom
