oh you can tell by the way I keep my house

that I’m a working mom, no time to dust…

I know when I wake up with my own version of a BeeGees song stuck in my head that my mind is spent. Been burning the midnight oil lately on a secret project at work, which will no longer be secret this afternoon.

But, in my 20 minutes of surfing after turning in my final draft of the site skeleton, I learned that coparenting – the dynamics of the relationship between the mom and dad in a household – has a measurable impact on the kiddos of that household. Coparenting relationships that are collaborative and supportive seem to decrease the occurrence of aggression or out of control behavior in at risk 4 and 5 year olds according to a study from Ohio State.

    Sure coparenting leads to less fighting between kids. You have twice the police force when you have two parents on the job. Unless, of course, you have a good cop and a bad cop.
