"Polyamorous Family Raising 11 Year-Old Girl"


It's always nice to see polyamorous families with kids. I have yet to see a polyamorous family that is bad for its kids. Everything that defines a polyamorous family - multiple adults present, honesty, communication, resilience of key relationships, etc. - are good things for a kid to have in their life. Certainly, most kids of polyamorous families won't have to deal with divorce the way modern kids of monogamists do all the time. Maybe this is my inner conservatism, but one of the things I love most about polyamory and polygamy is the increased support network for children. Big, communal households are the way most humans have lived before industrialization, and they're very good for us.
