Co-parenting is hard but we're actually making it work

Just wanted to share something positive. My ex and I split when our son was 3. First year was brutal, lots of tension and miscommunication. We finally got a mediator involved and actually started treating it like the business arrangement it is. We use a shared calendar, text updates about school stuff, and keep personal drama out of conversations about parenting. We're not friends but we're respectful. He has a new girlfriend now and I'm genuinely happy for him. Sounds cheesy but it's possible to do this right if both people commit to it.
