Living across two homes doesn't have to feel like navigating a minefield—but it does takeintention, communication, and a willingness to loosen your gripa little. In this episode ofTheGood Divorce Show, Karen McNenny gets practical about the day-to-day logistics of co-parenting, sharing real strategies that make life smoother for both parents and kids. Karen introduces the "boomerangfolder"—a simple but powerful tool for keeping both co-parents in the loop on everything from permission slips to test grades—and explains whyletting both parents celebrate (and address) school milestones together matters more than youmight think. She also tackles the gear question: how to handle belongings moving between homes withoutturning your kids into little luggage carriers. From Sunday transition timing to flexible residential schedules, Karen makes the case that thebest co-parenting plans aren't rigid—they're rooted in relationship. When Uncle Bob and AuntBetty come to town, or a work conference throws the calendar off, a foundation of mutualrespect means you can actually problem-solve instead of power-struggle. At the heart of this episode is Karen's core philosophy: divorce is a family event first and a legalevent second. Stabilize the family, protect the co-parent relationship, and the logistics—schedules, gear, transitions, and all—become so much more manageable.
