Cohousing-L Mailing List: Kids and cohousing "families"

[Anne R Tyler (tylerar]

Hi,

I've been reading the comments about kids and responsibilities and 
difficulties and I have a few questions.

When you get/got together for cohousing, do/did any of you talk about 

- what parenting meant to you
- what goals you had for children and how you thought they could be achieved
- different philosophies of parenting and why they worked/didn't work
- ideas about working out differences as far parenting issues were concerned

Sometimes I think that difficulties in childrearing come from not having 
had to be clear about what's going on and why problems are occurring.

Does this resonate with any of you?

Anne
