The divorce of Harris and Krieger is a reminder that even the strongest relationships can sometimes come to an end. It is also a reminder of the importance of co-parenting and putting the needs of children first.

What Does This Mean for Their Children?

Harris and Krieger have not yet released a public statement about their custody plans. However, they have said that they are committed to co-parenting their children in a loving and supportive environment.

Co-parenting can be challenging, but it is possible for divorced parents to work together and raise happy and healthy children. Here are some tips for co-parenting:

• Communicate effectively with your ex-partner. This means being able to talk to them about your children's needs and schedules in a respectful and civil manner.
• Be flexible and willing to compromise. There will be times when you and your ex-partner need to work together to find solutions that work for both of you.
• Put your children's needs first. This means making decisions that are in their best interests, even if it means putting your own needs aside.
• Seek professional help if needed. A therapist can help you and your ex-partner to communicate more effectively and co-parent more successfully.

It is important to remember that every child is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to co-parenting. The most important thing is to find a solution that works for your family and puts your children's needs first.
