NPO: New Support for Shared Parenting

Article here. Excerpt:

'Last week, I attended the second International Conference on Shared Parenting in Bonn, Germany. This was organized by the International Council on Shared Parenting (ICSP). (National Parents Organization has worked hard to foster the growth of this new Europe-based research organization.)

The conference was attended by about 120 people from 20 countries, from Malaysia to America. We learned, for instance, that shared parenting is favored by law in Switzerland, Sweden, Australia and Brazil, which also has an anti-parental alienation law. Moreover, as we have reported earlier, the Council of Europe has passed a resolution calling for shared parenting in the European countries in order to counter gender bias.

As one of the presenters, I gave evidence to support the idea that in most cases, the best interest of the child is best served with shared parenting.'
