When the writer became engaged to Pratt, she decided to enlist the services of a specialist in stepchild rearing.
“Stepparenting, like parenting, has no handbook. Because I have the benefit of being in both roles, stepparenting is extra confusing because you aren’t a parent, you’re not a nanny, you’re not an assistant. You have responsibilities in all of those areas, but you’re not either of them. It’s a confusing thing to navigate where you fit in,” Schwarzenegger explains on the Parenting & You With Dr. Shefali podcast, which she attended in the company of her husband.
Pratt, for his part, said that although co-parenting takes a lot of work, it goes smoothly when everyone is willing to collaborate. “It takes a lot of work, but it works when everybody is willing to put in the work,” Schwarzenegger added. “And when it comes to ego, that definitely pops up for me, for sure, and I always go back to understanding that this isn’t about me, it’s about the child.” “Children are children and they’re on their own paths,” Pratt said.
