Familyship – the new family model
Platonic parents
An Internet portal brings together friends who want to start a family
Family life without the joys of love. Impossible? Not at all, say the founders of Familyship. To assist people who want kids but don't have a suitable partner, the social entrepreneur developed a new Internet portal on which two people find each other and raise a child together. As friends, not as lovers. This alternative family concept built on friendship is called co-parenting. The idea was originated in the gay and lesbian scene. But Familyship quickly realised that people who live alone can also have a happy family.
