@sedonarose Loads of benefits to it that just couldn't be practically replicated in a nuclear family. Expectations that aren't communicated, negotiated and resolved are usually the biggest problems people face in co-parenting. Poor relationship stuff. The reality of co-parenting is that there...

@mekhappes I mean... The parenting plan has the power to evolve into an enforcement plan. But that requires you take it back to court. Unless this plan is non legally binding. If it isn't legally binding, though, it's status quo which also holds a lot of power... Again, should it come back to...
