Can I become a parent without leaving my relationship?

Depending on your situation and your partner's openness, it's sometimes possible to become a parent through co-parenting with a third person, without ending your current relationship.

This requires very transparent communication with your partner about what this project actually involves: time devoted to the child, day-to-day organization, and everyone's role.

It's not a universal solution, and it requires genuine agreement from everyone involved, but it does exist for some couples in this situation.
