How can separated parents keep memories together?
Use one shared timeline per child that both parents add to, instead of two separate photo archives. That way what happens at one home and what happens at the other sit side by side in date order, and your child ends up with one complete story.
What is the best co-parenting app in the Netherlands?
It depends on what you need. For schedules, messages and splitting costs, 2houses is the strongest option available in Dutch. For keeping photos, videos and milestones together, Ouderliefde is the Dutch choice, with one subscription that covers both parents.
Can my ex post photos of our child on social media?
In principle, not without talking it through. In the Netherlands, for children under 16 the parents with parental authority decide together about publishing images. Ideally, agree in your parenting plan that nothing is shared publicly without the other parent's consent.
Do both parents have to pay for a co-parenting app?
With many apps, yes. OurFamilyWizard, for example, charges per parent. Not with Ouderliefde: one subscription covers the whole family and the co-parent takes part fully, for free.
One timeline for your child
Both parents add photos and milestones to the same timeline. One subscription covers both homes, and grandparents on both sides can follow along through their own secure link.
