Families which include kids are responsible for the complex job
of nurturing - filling adults and kids' needs well for
two de-cades. Many people feel "it takes a village to raise a
child (well)" - i.e. it takes the patient wisdom of many adults
to prepare a child for successful independent life. Forming and
maintaining voluntary parenting cooperation among family adults
can be challenging - specially in complex divorcing families and
step-families.
Evolving an effective co-parenting team was called "Project
10" in this nonprofit Web site.
The same ideas are now
part of self-study Lessons 5 and 6 here (Evolve a
nourishing family, and learn effective parenting).
