We spend a lot of time discussing the joys and struggles that come with parenthood, but we rarely take the time to explore the choice one makes to enter the club.

For many of us, the path to parenthood was not an easy or straight-forward journey... but that's especially true for members of the LGBTQ community.

Boundaries (DILF's Co-Parenting Series)

3 Recommendations

As a podcast created to learn more about the world of #parenting & one that often asks others to delve deep into their relationship with their kids and their partners, it’s only fair that our host does the same for time-to-time... which is one of the motivations behind DILF's Co-Parenting Series where Kevin invites on his beautiful wife Laura to discuss any issues they might be dealing with in their #coparenting relationship - whether it has to do with their child or their relationship with one another.

Luckily it’s become a popular series amongst our listeners and has seemed to be helpful tool for others in their own relationships. So, if you are new to the podcast or this co-parenting series (which is basically our version of #couplestherapy), buckle in as Kevin welcomes back his wife/co-parent for an honest + vulnerable conversation on the importance of healthy boundaries... and his wife's self-confessed lack of any!

This is the third installment of DILF's Co-Parenting Series...
