Susan Fowler and her ex-husband Josh have garnered attention for their unique approach to co-parenting after divorce, termed 'birdnesting.' This method allows them to share custody while minimizing disruption for their five children. Rather than maintaining separate homes, they take turns living at the family house, ensuring the children remain in their familiar environment. Although initially daunting, they found this arrangement cost-effective and beneficial for their children's stability, demonstrating a creative solution to traditional co-parenting challenges that prioritize family well-being during a transitional time.
In our divorce, we decided to keep the kids in the house and have parents switch back and forth. Every time I pack... I'm thankful it's me.
It was scary at first, figuring out the logistics... But it was also way cheaper than two houses big enough for six people.
