About Us – Where Real Families Find Real Support

Welcome to 2012-8-28.com, a parenting platform built for families that don’t fit a single mold. We celebrate the beauty, strength, and uniqueness of modern family life—especially when it comes to blended households, co-parenting dynamics, and new beginnings.

Parenting today looks different than it did a generation ago—and that's not just okay, it's powerful.

Who We Are

We are a collective of therapists, family coaches, educators, and real parents who understand that no two households look or operate the same. Some of us have navigated co-parenting schedules, others have walked the path of stepparenting with love and learning. What brings us together is a shared belief in compassionate communication, emotional intelligence, and doing the best we can—with what we’ve got.

We created this platform for those trying to juggle the emotional layers of parenting, partnership, healing, and homebuilding. We know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, unrecognized, or unsure—and we’re here to offer community, not judgment.

At 2012-8-28.com, we don’t offer perfect solutions—we offer real ones. Because family isn’t a formula, it’s a connection.
