Co-Parenting Matters
because kids thrive when parents partner

So we told you about the debut of Co-Parenting Matters, the live, weekly talk show we’re co-hosting on BlogTalk Radio with Talibah Mbonisi of WeParent.com

We told you that you can catch the debut show on Sunday, October 25, 2009 by visiting BlogTalkRadio or calling in to (646) 378-0580.

We told you that on our debut show, we’d be discussing myths that can undermine your co-parenting relationship.

We told you that we would feature expert guests talking about a variety of co-parenting topics.

But did we tell you that we need YOU to tell us what you’d like to talk about? What’s going on in your co-parenting world?
