Brian Austin Green opens up about his number one co-parenting rule with ex Megan Fox. The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum who shares sons Noah Shannon, 11, Bodhi Ransom, 10, and Journey River, 7, with the Transformers actress revealed the ways of successfully parenting with his ex-wife. On April 13, Brian exclusively unveiled a lot of facts during an interview with E! News at Steel City Comic Con. Let’s check out the complete details of this story.
Brian Austin Green revealed the number one rule of co-parenting
The 50-year-old told the media house during the interview, “The number one is always make sure that everything is centered around the experience of the kids.”
“People make a mistake of thinking that they’re gonna do things so the separation doesn’t affect the kids and that’s—of course it’s gonna affect the kids,” he also noted. “The only choice you have is how it affects the kids.”
Moreover, it’s not easy for the former couple who parted ways after 11 years of marriage to put their kids first as the actor noted. Sometimes it’s important to “pick your battles.”
“The person that you were with that you’re now separated from, you guys are separated for a reason,” Brian explained, “because you didn’t get along. So, you can’t expect to then get along after the fact in raising your kids. So, you have to decide, ‘OK, it’s not about us getting along anymore. It’s about us co-parenting, which is a totally different situation.’”
Previously, Megan who is in a relationship with rapper-singer Machine Gun Kelly shared some similar sentiments like her ex. During an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show last fall, she noted, “I think it’s really important when people separate to never ever disparage the other parent or even in a passive aggressive way, make remarks. I don’t let anything in my energy like that when I’m around my kids because if I don’t accept and love their father I’m rejecting a part of them because he’s a part of who they are always.”
Even the actress noted that she wants to “be very loving with him and about him” and be “very accepting,” she also shared, “That gives your children the freedom to be happy because they don’t have to carry the burden of a war between parents.”
