## Resource

What if the person you chose to have a baby with didn’t have to be the person you were in love with? This week, Kee and Kelly are deep-diving platonic co-parenting - from friends having babies together, to co-parenting apps, to the families choosing to raise children outside the traditional romantic relationship model. And the more they unpack it, the more the question becomes less “is this weird?” and more “did we just make parenting harder by doing it all in a nuclear family?”   LINKS TO EVERYTHING WE MENTIONED Impact - Mixed-Orientation Marriage Mamamia - I'm a straight woman happily married to a gay man The New York Times: In Search of a Platonic Co-Parent Elective Co-Parenting Study HOSTS & PRODUCERS Kee Reece Searles  @keereece Kelly McCarren @kelly_mccarren AUDIO PRODUCTION Madeline Joannou - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mylk Media⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  ⁠⁠⁠⁠ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
