Summary

In today's A Dad's Path podcast, we talk about Parallel Parenting. Parallel parenting occurs when two partners are working on parenting their children but are hardly in contact with each other. They're working in Parallel, but not together. You can fall into a parallel parenting pattern from within your seemingly happy relationship.

Enjoy and Dad On!
