Diary of a Platonic Co-Parent

Platonic co-parenting is an arrangement where two or more individuals decide to have a child together with no attached romantic or sexual relationship. In this arrangement, the co-parents share equal parenting responsibilities and make joint decisions about their child’s upbringing. As people’s emotional and relationship needs have changed over the last decade, this unique form of parenting has become increasingly popular among certain sections of society. Like any relationship, however, platonic co-parenting comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages.
