What happens when parenting becomes a true partnership?
In this updated edition of 50/50 Parenting: Sharing Family Rewards and Responsibilities, sociologist and researcher Gayle Kimball explores how shared parenting strengthens families, supports children's emotional development, and creates healthier, more equitable relationships between parents and their children.

Drawing on interviews with hundreds of parents, children, educators, and family experts, Kimball combines research, real-life case studies, and practical guidance to show how couples can successfully share childcare, housework, decision-making, and emotional responsibilities. The book examines parenting in diverse family structures, including dual-career marriages, divorced families, stepfamilies, and communal living arrangements.

This revised edition includes updated research on father involvement, gender roles, work-family balance, democratic discipline, and the long-term benefits of cooperative parenting for children and couples alike.

Insightful, compassionate, and ahead of its time, 50/50 Parenting offers a hopeful vision for families seeking stronger partnerships and more connected lives.
