Family Opens Up About Coparenting Setup
This Family Has 3 Parents, and by All Accounts, It's a Pretty Good Setup
Lucas' health is still a top priority — he was also diagnosed with autism and ADHD — and Lindsay is happy to have an additional pair of eyes on the kids. And truth be told, the extra set of hands makes raising their brood a heck of a lot easier.
"Having three parents in one household is actually pretty great," she said. "We all have our strengths, and we help each other out. I do a lot of the family administrative work, Chris is enjoying being home for his kids as he is disabled with a neurological muscle disorder. He does do the grocery shopping and helps organize lists of things that need to be done."
As for Mike? He takes on more of a handy man role around the house.
"Mike is super handy. He helps with a ton of DIY stuff around the house," explained Lindsay. "When he's not painting he also takes care of Harrison when I am with Lucas, working, blogging, networking, or studying."
Obviously, the older kids also have household responsibilities, too.
"Our adult kids also help out a lot when they aren't working or going to school," she said. "We could not do it without the village we have built. Everyone plays a pivotal role here."
