Why Two Parents Rather than One or Five?
In this post, Kalle Grill discusses his recent article in Journal of Applied Philosophy on how many parents there should be in a family.
Engaged parenting is hard work. That is one reason most of us prefer to have a co-parent. But why stop at one? As I argue in a recent article, I don’t think there is a good and general answer to that question. Some people are committed to an existing two-parent family, or to starting one, but there is no reason why society should endorse that family form as a norm.
