Americans for Equal Shared Parenting
Hosted by dewayne ward, Americans for Equal Shared Parenting is a conversation about the legal and emotional landscape of co-parenting after separation. This podcast moves beyond abstract debate, focusing on the tangible ideas and legislative efforts aimed at making equal shared parenting a standard consideration in family courts nationwide. Each episode delves into the practical realities and the evolving dialogue surrounding this family model, exploring how it impacts children, parents, and the broader community. You'll hear from advocates, legal professionals, and individuals with lived experience, all contributing to a nuanced understanding of what it means to prioritize a child's right to maintain strong bonds with both parents. The discussions are grounded in the work of founder Mark Ludwig and the organization's mission to promote these principles across the United States. Tune in for thoughtful, often personal explorations of modern parenting structures, the challenges within the current system, and the pathways being forged toward more equitable outcomes for families. It’s a resource for anyone interested in the future of family law, whether you're directly navigating co-parenting, working in the field, or simply believe in the importance of a child's access to both parents.
