This custody stuff is actually getting easier

Wanted to pop in with a win because this subreddit can be heavy sometimes. Been co-parenting my daughter (she's 5 now) for almost 3 years since the split. First year was ROUGH—my ex and I could barely text without it getting tense. But somewhere along the line we figured out how to actually communicate like humans. This past month we've coordinated her activities, made holiday plans, even grabbed coffee together to sync on some behavioral stuff she's been having. She's not my ex anymore, she's just... my co-parent. And that's okay. Anyway. Things can get better.
