Confession: "My baby mama spent our child's gift money to buy something else"
It's like the saying goes, the key to a great relationship is communication.
Someone has a confession to make...
Every week we release a confession on the streets of Mzansi and get KZN to weigh in with their unfiltered thoughts.
This week we are addressing a father's concerns over his baby mama making decisions without talking to him first.

This week's confession reads as follows:
"I gave my baby mama money to buy OUR child a ps5. It has come to pass that she took that money and bought two separate gifts for our child as well as her other child she shares with someone else. I don't think this is right: my child is upset and doesn't understand. I'm furious. What am I to do?"

As much as some might say parenting is difficult, we have got to say that co-parenting is much, much more challenging.
Finding a balance with your style of parenting when you are in a relationship with your child's other parent is difficult. Yes, you won't always be on the same page, but you find your way eventually.
But when you are a co-parent, it's about sharing time with your child and having to make decisions together, while sometimes dealing with all the underlying tension.
