I’m in the market for books that normalize poly parenting. I have the Red Stroller for normalizing different family types (eg. single parent, gay, interracial).
My child’s other parent (separated) is very conservative and my family is too. I’m not trying to “push” poly, but prepare my kid mentally/emotionally if people say shit about me. I still have several years before I would need to come out.
When I look at the downvotes, its seems like lots of folks have an issue with your post. I think you post is pretty reasonable and I hope you you get some constructive comments.
Plus I found some discussions on Reddit about this topic on Reddit
Poly family I know reports in
There’s one called “and that’s their family” that we have that has poly representation
why do your kids need to know about your sex life?
isn’t the reason to explain why the kid might have multiple parents in comparison to other children? (sort of like how some children might have only 2 dads, 2 moms, or 2 nonbinary parents) (ah derp they already mentioned this in their post lol)
based on the post it doesn’t seem like their intention is to talk about their sex life as you say, that just sounds off and real bizarre
Yeah. This is literally just to simplify the questions of why do I have multiple boy/girlfriends. It’s not like I can hide that from my kid.
The alternative is to let them think I’m cheating, which is what other people in my kid’s life will tell him.
It’s no different than trying to answer the two dads question.
