• A young Ghanaian lady has expressed her preference for co-parenting over marriage, citing her experiences with men as one reason

A young Ghanaian lady said she does not want to marry anybody but would instead like to co-parent with whoever she has a child with.

The young lady said her choice was mainly based on her experiences growing up in a broken home and her mother's struggles.

In a Facebook video shared by Silent Beads, the beautiful lady said her mother raised them alone because her father was not available. She added that she has not had any good experience with men regarding love relationships.
