For many divorced couples, a co-parenting agreement seemed like the perfect solution for raising their children under imperfect conditions. But then came COVID-19 and all of its related restrictions, which changed the co-parenting landscape especially for families where at least one parent is considered an essential worker.

This leaves divorced parents facing a lot of questions.

Today more than ever successful co-parenting requires a greater effort in cooperation.
