Nick Cannon struck to dismiss the term “co-parent”: “What else would you say?”

For most parents, co-spent is not a keyword. It is survival.

However, for Nick Cannon, father of 12 children, it is not even something. He does not believe in the term.

In a recent episode of his podcast, Nick Cannon @ Night, he answered a fan question about how to manage multiple co-speaking relationships while they are.

Tags are not the problem, nick

The star shares his children with six women: Monroe and Morocan with Mariah Carey, Golden, Powerful and Rise with Britain Bell, Zion and Zion with Abby de la Rosa, legendary with Bre Tiesi, Onyx with Lanisha Cole and Halo and Zen with Alyssa Scott.

“Curious to listen to Nick’s perspective on the management of multiple co-speaking relationships while they are. It is a unique situation that could offer some real views for mixed families,” the listener wrote.

Answer from Cannon? He “has always had a problem” with the term co-spent. He thinks we just have to say -“parenting”.

“When you start throwing labels on things, I think it hurts more and can be very dangerous, because everyone else has a preconceived idea of what you are doing,” he said.

“I haven’t discovered it yet. I haven’t succeeded all the way. But … if I only delve into all situations with respect and compassion and individuality … This is the other thing I always do with anyone I am involved in my life.”

Easy for him to say.

Last month, the guy with a self-proclaimed “Complex King” forgot the names of two of his children when asked if he would consider having more.

In “The Real Good Podcast” with Bobbi Althoff, he punched, paused half a roll, then flew, finally remembering the two finals only with the application.

Cannon’s version of “Aging” seems to come with private jets, a complete staff and a programming system that would be embarrassed by NASA’s mission. For all others, co-parentality is a carefully balanced act that includes court orders, Google calendars and uncomfortable ferries in car parks.

Co-spare is not a toxic tag.

When you say goodbye, Cannon risks making an even more difficult reality for the millions of parents who live it every day.

“This is not what you do with your children’s football team?”

The Internet agrees, with many hits on Instagram.

“It is clear that he does not believe in anything to begin with” co-spare, commitment, common sense, constant presence and condoms, “a commentator wrote.

“But this is not what you do with your children’s football team? What else would you say,” another argued.

A third added, “Well … when you forget your children’s names … I think the term is not parental, right?”

Here is the thing. Call it co-parent provides people with a term that they can do Google at 2 in the morning when they are desperate by advice.

It connects them to books, podcasts, judicial guidelines and communities of people navigating the same ground.

For most, the co-spent is to split on Christmas mornings, negotiate on who gets the child’s football final and texting through teeth on the missing school hats. Work with, not against, the other child’s parent to make life as perfect as possible.

I asked the Children’s point Team for their thoughts.

Leah could understand what he was leaving.

“I wouldn’t have thought that, but I see where it is going,” he said.

However, she jokely warns: “Anyone who encounters him should wait for ten children.”

Cassidy is clear about the label Coparenting and parenting.

“Like someone who is not a father, I have no legitimate thought other than he does,” he said.

The reality is that it can reject the label if you want, but for millions of parents, the co-spent is not a label.

It is the glue that holds his family.
