Hi my name is Joe, and I am seeking a smart healthy talented woman to have one or more babies with. The following describes my hopes and goals for the co-parenting of those kids.

My preference is for natural pregnancy, but I am also open to in-vitro, surrogacy, and adoption.

I would also like to share the child-rearing responsibilities with the mother 50:50, time-wise and cost-wise.

It is also important to me that we (Mom, Dad, & kids) have family dinner nearly every night, so that we can reflect on our day and chart next steps. Which also implies that we live on the same property, or very nearby.

My personal preference is to do this near Knoxville TN, whose outskirts are rural and with green mountains, blue rivers and lakes, all four seasons, and reasonable cost-of-living & traffic. And I do have a nice home near Knoxville that is well-suited for this. But you might know a better place to raise kids, so the precise location is negotiable

I also prefer that our kids be home-schooled, and your inputs here would be very welcome. My scholastic goals are to raise kids who are good, smart, thoughtful, high impact, and to educate the next generation of leaders. Presumably with Mom & Dad contributing to the homeschooling, work permitting. But I also anticipate hiring a professional teacher for most of the teaching.

Also note that I am in my late 50s. Which does have these upsides: this is not my first rodeo, I know what I am doing, and I have the time and the resources to raise kids proper. Google says that my remaining life expectancy is approximately 23 years, which means that I will likely be around until the kids are young adults.

Do keep in mind that this would be about platonic co-parenting. Which means that Mom would remain in charge of her personal/romantic life, and that I would be in charge of mine. But I will definitely need the mother’s help with the child-rearing and co-parenting.

Lastly, all of the above is merely an opening position and is negotiable since you might have better ideas about the co-parenting. If so, then please email me at PlatonicCoParentingWithJoe@gmail.com so we can discuss the possibilities.

Thanks,
    Joe

I am a straight white male, single/divorced, late 50s, tallish and weight-appropriate. I am reasonably healthy, in decent shape, and still have all my hair and teeth.

I have a successful career at a well-known tech firm, and I intend to work until I drop or am forced to retire.

Am Libertarian i.e. conservative-ish but not MAGA crazy, though I am supportive of their better intentions

I am not religious and will defer to the Mom for the kids’ religious training.

I am also a science nerd with an academic background. Our kids will be smart 😉

Sci-fi and karaoke fan.

We will: have family dinner as often as possible, to reflect on our day & plan next steps. Have family movie nights. Take kids on family vacations (hiking & camping & boating, the beach, amusement parks, and to visit our extended families).

Our kids will learn: the three R’s, philosophy, logic, debate, leadership, art, music, sports, fishing, shooting, and to two-step very well!

We will also teach our kids to be forward-thinkers, and ready them to take advantage of the next round of high-tech waves that will impact everybody’s lives:

• AI & robotics, happening now.
  
• Fusion energy, which will provide abundant clean & cheap energy a few decades hence.
  
• Quantum computing, which will make AI super fast & smart.
  
• Travel to low-Earth orbit and beyond (e.g. Moon and nearby asteroids). Some of our kids might have space travel opportunities.  Some of our grandkids might be born off-planet.
  

In short, our kids will be smart, loving, well-rounded, interesting, independent, high-skill, forward thinking, and natural leaders.
