Mzansi reacts to text messages between mature co-parenting duo, claims they’re flirtatious with each other

In related news, Briefly News reported that while you don’t have to be BFFs after a breakup or divorce, co-parents need to get it together and become a collaborative team for the sake of their child. These two parents seem to be navigating their co-parenting relationship quite well if a recent post is anything to go by.

Twitter user, @Lush_Beauty1, recently shared a screenshot of a conversation between two parents. They were discussing how they would share the responsibilities of getting their child school supplies before schools reopen.

In the chat, one parent can be seen asking the other what they would be buying between uniform and stationery, so that they can plan their budget. The other parent answers that they’ll take care of the uniform as they believe it will be more expensive. The other, then politely thanks them and says that they will take care of the stationery this weekend before they end their conversation with cute emojis.
