Conscious Co-Parents Collective

Are you a Cooperative Co-Parent or a Parallel Co-Parent?

Cooperative Parenting

Co-parenting is a cooperative relationship undertaken by parents who intentionally communicate and negotiate with the other parent on how to take on the socialization, care, and upbringing of children for whom they share equal responsibility.

Parallel Parenting

Parallel parenting refers to a method of co-parenting in which each parent has their own parenting approach when the children are with them. Parallel parenting allows for high-conflict co-parents to maintain their collective parenting responsibilities while disconnecting from each other personally.
