Co-Parenting Hacks Real Parents Swear By

I’ve been co-parenting with my ex-husband for seven years. Most of the time it’s okay, sometimes it’s a nightmare, and now and again it all just falls into place and we might even text each other to acknowledge what a good job we’re doing (a little reminder that divorce doesn’t have to be the end of the world is always helpful). It’s never going to be perfect — when is any kind of parenting ever that? — but you can keep those nightmares (and arguments, and misunderstandings, and wardrobe malfunctions and homework disasters) to a minimum by relying on some genius co-parenting hacks that are tried and tested by real moms and dads.
