10 Resources for Polyam Parenting

Added 2021-10-17 15:13:24 +0000 UTC

Hi cutie,

A number of patrons have requested some resources on parenting. Being a non-parent myself, I need to outsource the wisdom. :)

If you're also a non-parent, these can still absolutely be of service. The longer I'm polyam, the more people I date who have children already. Understanding the complex realities of child rearing is something from which everyone benefits.

I'm including a variety of viewpoints and relationship styles, so hopefully you'll find at least one or two that resonate.

This list is of course not comprehensive, but it's a place to start!

1. @remodeledlove on IG, Twitter and TikTok. This is a generally solid polyam resource, inclusive of parenting experiences. They also have a podcast: anchor.fm/remodeled

2. The Posey Family - @3lesbians1bed on IG and TikTok. This triad is raising a toddler, and sharing all about it on a variety of platforms. YouTube: youtube.com/user/luvposey

3. Kenya Stevens - @progressive_love_academy on IG and FB. Kenya is polyam for nearly 20 years with teenage children and a lot of wisdom.

4. Bree @baeleche_ on IG - baeleche.com . She is a kinky mother of 2 who can speak to dating while pregnant, among other things!

5. Andy @thegrowtharc on IG and FB - thegrowtharc.com . She is a polyam educator, sex worker and mom with a lot to share.

6. Sarah @polypocketparent on IG - polyampocketparent.com . She is a solo polyamorous mother blogging about her life.

7. Amory Podcast - amorypodcast.com/podcast . I shared about this podcast recently, but it's also run by polyam parents. They have several episodes speaking to that experience in depth.

8. A Color Named Love by M. Ellery - acolornamedlove.com . This is a very sweet children's book with polyamorous representation.

7. @holy_poly_macaroni on IG. An FFM triad raising a child and educating along the way.

8. @happypolyfamily on IG. While not educators, this polyam quad shares a lot about life with 3 kids!

9. @conorandbrittany on IG and YouTube. Family / Lifestyle channel: youtube.com/channel/UCCEyHtoV-ZvunxYDLCjhZvg

Love / Sex channel: youtube.com/channel/UC64ZVJ-UfwaM52umSn2SZaw

10. Wash Your Mouth Out podcast - wash-your-mouth-out-podcast.simplecast.com . A sex positive podcast focused on "power, pleasure and parenting."

If you or someone you love is a polyam parent (or considering becoming one) I hope that one or more of these resources can support you!

With love,

Morgan
