With almost half of all marriages ending in divorce, co-parenting is more common than ever. Since 1985, the percentage of shared physical custody in the U.S. has increased from 13% to 34%. Honoring your ex’s parenting decisions can be hard, especially with a new partner in the mix.
One dad tried to convey to his ex that he found their 8-year-old daughter sleeping alone in the mom’s boyfriend’s house inappropriate. As she didn’t see the big deal, it raised even more red flags for the father. Concerned, he decided to share his story online, and sparked quite a heated debate among netizens.
