Co-parenting a child can be a wonderful and challenging joint venture. Research indicates that lesbian couples share many of the same issues that heterosexual couples face in co-parenting. However, there may be unique issues that we face that heterosexual parents may not. We are exploring those issues in an attempt to better understand the unique challenges that lesbian mothers face as they raise their children.
