COHOUSING FAMILIES: Raising children in community 

our children were not meant to be raised by only two parents, because we are communal, social creatures. we learn from each other.

If you voluntarily live there, and there's the option for privacy as well as an option socialization...then what's the problem?

Getting up there in age and living alone, I wish I could live in a situation like this. I could tutor children and help take care of them.

LOVE! What very blessed children and what very very blessed parents!!

Me and my family lived for 18 months in Pacific Garden Community Housing in Nanaimo BC Canada. Unforgettable experience even though I came from a culture that we already live socially but the extra bonus here was learning the language for all family members as we communicates with all community members and their families. Good for you all.

I think this works it just doesn't work under capitalism. Also I imagine it would be much harder for a child to be abused and isolated because they would be around others all the time and more harder to not be noticed

This is wonderful, I think I will give it a try...my children are grown up and left home. I live on my own.❤

Fabulous!
