Reality stars Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright have sealed the deal on their custody arrangements for their son, Cruz, and it’s anything but dull. The couple came together to agree on no child support, sharing costs while establishing joint legal custody. However, here’s the kicker: Brittany gets the final say on health decisions, and they’ve both agreed to avoid any alcohol or drugs when Cruz is in their care. Talk about keeping things civil!
It doesn’t stop there; they’ve put a waiting period of six months on introducing any new significant others into Cruz’s life. It seems both Jax and Brittany are determined to set a positive example for their three-year-old as they navigate their ongoing divorce. With Jax taking a break from The Valley to focus on his sobriety and mental health, it’s a refreshing change of pace from the usual reality TV drama—though you know that won’t last long!
In the end, it’s heartening to see them tackle co-parenting challenges head-on. But it raises questions about how to balance new relationships with parenting responsibilities. What do you think – should there be limits on when kids can meet new partners, or is there a need for flexibility?
